I have always felt there was no real difference between Hillary and Barack, and I see myself proven right. This was a power struggle within the Democratic party. The 2 were exactly the same, establishment candidates, and which one won would not have made any difference. What made the difference is a group of people behind the candidates, since that group would have all the power. So Pritzkers were behind Barack, and they will get to wield the power now. The candidates were just mouthpieces. But these groups were the real winners or losers in the last election. Hillary faction within the Democratic Party lost. The most powerful thing in Washington is money, and money doesn't care about labels of Republican or Democrat. It only seeks power.
