31. I don't agree. Her first speech in Wisconsin had to do with the Supreme Court and Citizens United.

All politicians know that the money has gotten out of control. I think, if a Democrat wins the presidency, we'll have at least a 5-4 Left leaning Supreme Court and Citizens United's days will be numbered.

But, we CAN'T AFFORD to get religion now. The Republican billionaires know that their hopes rest with the Judicial Branch. They know that all their voter suppression efforts like voter I.D. and gerrymandering will soon give way to demographic shifts and the Legislative Branch will not be their vehicle. They are going to spend obscene amounts to win this presidential and Senatorial elections. They MUST reshape the Supreme Court for a generation in their minds. We can't tie the hands of our candidate in the midst of this offensive financial onslaught. Please go to Amazon and review Jane Meyer's new book "Dark Money". It's a riveting book that explains how the oligarch wishes to wrest control of our Judicial Branch.
