A friend of mine really, really dislikes Hillary Clinton. And he is not shy about telling you why. He sees Hillary as an unprincipled money-grubbing shill for the corporations. And he is very offended by her coronation-like campaign style.
I recently asked him, "So what will you do if Hillary is the Democratic nominee for president?"
"Vote for her," he said instantly.
His answer did not surprise me much. My friend is a life-long democrat.
They realized then that they wouldn't win the country over on social issues and that they could never take back and hold onto the White House if they weren't united in the most rigid way.
Their chances have been better lately, but they still cling to that way of thinking. It's quite a change for a party that was notoriously unruly and unmanageable back in Will Rogers's day.
