Ironically, she's proving SuperPACs aren't even needed... JaneyVee Nov 2015 #3

But she will need the SuperPACs to combat the gop SuperPACs. n/t 1StrongBlackMan Nov 2015 #13

And it's reasonable to know who is behind the SuperPACs Armstead Nov 2015 #31

Okay ... 1StrongBlackMan Nov 2015 #40

If she's claiming she'll get rid of Super PACs if elected, then surely.. Kentonio Nov 2015 #55

Because it is in the middle of an election where the REAL opposition ... 1StrongBlackMan Nov 2015 #58

If you support getting rid of Super PACs Kentonio Nov 2015 #61

Jeb had all the money in the world and we see where that got him. marym625 Nov 2015 #10

I would agree with that el_bryanto Nov 2015 #11

I can blame Clinton for playing to her strengths. marym625 Nov 2015 #14

The problem is that most people don't take the time to look beyond the surface el_bryanto Nov 2015 #18

I disagree. but even so, it doesn't preclude what the OP requests. n/t marym625 Nov 2015 #29

Except insofar as you belief a complete accounting of who is giving Money to Clinton el_bryanto Nov 2015 #42

I'm so far as it is the right thing to do marym625 Nov 2015 #75

The right wing of DU will not like this idea. PowerToThePeople Nov 2015 #7

I'm pretty sure the campaign will not accept your "proposal" ... 1StrongBlackMan Nov 2015 #12

Standards matter angrychair Nov 2015 #20

It appears that "Standards matter" for only you, and a small sliver of DUers ... 1StrongBlackMan Nov 2015 #36

So, scorched earth protocol? angrychair Nov 2015 #43

It is you that is holding the torch, in a rather transparent effort ... 1StrongBlackMan Nov 2015 #53

What am i doing? angrychair Nov 2015 #60

Big of you to finally come out and admit that standards don't matter. frylock Nov 2015 #69

So, you are choosing not to answer? angrychair Nov 2015 #48

Oh, I answered, you just didn't like what I wrote..remember? you said you disagree. Sheepshank Nov 2015 #49

I didn't see your answer. Can you reiterate? frylock Nov 2015 #74

Saw off her own leg to satisfy the "demands" of people that have made it clear ... 1StrongBlackMan Nov 2015 #38

She's kinda like the alcoholic who swears he's gettin off the booze..after a few more drinks. Tierra_y_Libertad Nov 2015 #17

I think she's more like the victor who doesn't take a knife to a gunfight Rose Siding Nov 2015 #56

Considering her foreign policy record she'd be more likely to send the army to the gunfight. Tierra_y_Libertad Nov 2015 #59

In this analogy, the serial numbers will have been removed from her gun. frylock Nov 2015 #70
