There are fine reasons to support Hillary Clinton’s campaign. Some of the smartest people I know are behind her, and I appreciate their enthusiasm for what would be an historic achievement. I know, too, the long history of sexism and partisan attacks she has withstood. She’s shown amazing resilience.
But time is short and the stakes are high, and I want to focus on a pattern of her claiming to be a progressive Democrat while taking positions that are more closely aligned with the other side of the aisle.
