(11,243 posts)She wins some and loses some, but she always gets back up to fight another day. She is not as pristine as Sanders, but that is because she is more accomplished and experienced. Democracy is messy and involves compromise. People who win elections and get stuff done are never going to come out looking perfect. And things are fixing' to get really messy on the international stage. Not sure if I an ideologue with no foreign policy experience is the best choice right now.
There is something throwback and paternalistic about Sanders. He started his campaign with no women and (could be wrong, I didn't look at all the pictures) no minorities on his campaign staff. But we all need to sit down, shut up and listen because daddy Sanders knows what is best for all of us. I dunno, to me that is talking the talk, but not walking the walk. Economic progressivism is only part of the picture.
