As is, I believe, all this angst from the far-left.  Complain all they want, they\u2019ll vote for her in \u201908, without even thinking about it, because they know she\u2019s playing a game.  They\u2019re playing along, actually, and helping her to look \u201cmore\u201d centrist with their rants.   They\u2019re sort of handing her a \u201cSistah Souljah Moment.\u201d   Since they are not in the majority, they are also expendable.  If only 1\/2 of the howling left votes for her, but she convinces others that she really is \u201cmoderate,\u201d she can win without them.<\/p>\n<p>Doug concludes that \u2013 as ever \u2013 there is not much substance to anything Hillary is saying.
