Most people would classify her as solidly "center left" in the current US spectrum. Anyone who classifies her as "far left wing" pretty much outs themself as an extreme rightwinger. (shrug). Elections have consequences. The GOP had complete control of the system for 8 years and substantial control for 28 years .... and failed to seriously address any of their "hot button voting issues" while providing a conduit for the looting of the system by small select individuals and corporate interests - the end game of a 28 year power play.
Odd how that happens.....  |
When they use the term 'progressive' what are they really trying to say under their sugarcoating, by the way?
(it's a new BS sounding term for me within politics)
