Whatever message for whatever the audience is. That is called pandering and Clinton is really really good at it. Except it is so painfully obvious.
Last night at her Iowa speech, she said “I’m a progressive.”
In today’s interview with Chris Mathews, she said, “We’ve got to get back to the middle. We’ve got to get back to the big center.” This was a response to Chris Mathews claiming that Bernie Sanders is just too extreme.
One of Clinton’s campaign people on MSNBC in an interview on With All Due Respect said that Bernie Sanders was too extreme. When asked the obvious follow-up, “what policies is he proposing that are extreme?” He replied, the word “revolution” is just too extreme.
That’s right. They think he has great ideas, he just isn’t allowed to say THAT word. It’s too much.
So now I am left wondering…
Which Hillary Clinton is running for president, the progressive or the person who wants us to move to the middle? You can’t both agree with Sanders on the issues and claim he is too extreme at the same time.
