I think I will have to bid a fond farewell to DU.
Economically, Hillary is the exact opposite of everything Warren stands for.
Ms. Oh, you poor put-upon bankers, we all got into these messes together and we all will have to get out of them - translated - you get the taxpayers' money - will have changed the Democratic Party into something I do not want to belong to. I wouldn't do a dramatic exit or anything, just shrug and go. I don't care for the pervasive jeering and harsh hyperbole of the HRC group, anyway.

If Fast Track goes through, I will not vote for anyone who voted for it, nor will I vote for anyone who championed it, so I would be violating the TOS if I stayed past the primaries and the candidate is Hillary.

All that talk about Warren being more useful in the Senate - as if Hillary OR the GOP/Blue Dogs are going to allow Warren to beef up regulations, do something about college debt, expand Social Security. I suppose I should feel warm and fuzzy that all of those things, like the TPP, will affect women and children as equally badly as they affect men.

Anyway, I have already replied to the HRC email asking for money and a pledge of support with a request to unsubscribe, and reason given was TPP, fracking, war, Jamie Dimon.
