Viva Hillary Clinton!

Although she won Puerto Rico easily, Clinton seemed to be campaigning in an alternate reality, as hopes for the nomination slipped away.

    @red Clinton progressive policies

    The Clinton's progressive policies have been on display for decades -- and they took immense personal damage from the Republicans for it. They took it for the Democratic Party. You cannot deny that.

    Do you mind recounting the progressive policies? The policies that stick in my mind are NAFTA, welfare reform, China MFN, deficit reduction and a strong dollar. The last two are just good government, but the democrats yielded them to the republicans for years up until Bush 43. But the first 3 issues are more triangulation than progressism.
