17 Months
I'm sorry I've neglected this important work for so long. Commitments to work and family proved to be greater than expected, and I had to reconsider my priorities. Yesterday, I was reading a piece by Paul Hogarth out of San Francisco, who summed up my own sentiments nicely:
[I]t is depressing to see Hillary Clinton pick up support for the nomination, when Democrats – and the country – deserve so much better.It is just that: depressing. Over the past year and a half, Clinton has dominated the field in fundraising, press coverage and polling. Too many of us are sitting on our hands, allowing a Republican-lite candidate to be thrust upon us yet again. What's worse, Clinton would have the world believe that Progressives are a flock of sheep with internet access, basing judgment on whatever statement she's released the day before. In the past 17 months, Clinton has changed or "moderated" her official stances on:
- The war
- Healthcare
- Wal-Mart
- Marriage equality
