The fact that Clinton proved that there's a point of diminishing returns where money infusions mean nothing when given to a useless campaign doesn't mean that we should just surrender the money game to the right.

Money is a corrupting influence, therefore, you should be selective where you source it from.

I know this veers dangerously into "Clinton isn't 100% responsible" territory, but is it possible that the right-wing media machine has become powerful enough that GOP candidates don't really need war-chests for ads anymore? Why run an ad when you can just play interview t-ball in every diner and blue collar radio show in the country?

Like how do you counteract the power that Fox News has?

It's a good point but I would postulate that AM radio has had more of an effect than Fox News

i also agree - i think voters are largely fine with candidates taking lobbyist/corporate money if they trust the candidate and think they're working for them. it certainly didn't hurt obama.

This was also pre-economic crash and then incumbent election. I think Hill Folk really underestimate how angry people are about corporate money considering every banker walked away scot-loving free

The real reason Clinton lost was that $1,500,000,000 just wasn't enough money.

Garands are the tool of the capitalist pig. The tools of the trade are the Mosin-Nagant, the PPsH, and the AK-47.

“I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on,” Bernie said in the interview, citing an article by The Associated Press.

It “found how Secretary Clinton’s support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again, and how whites in both states who had not completed college were supporting me.”

“There’s a pattern emerging here,” he said.

Don't diminish the importance of knowing Washington's inner workings; it's a big part of why Sanders' campaign ultimately didn't succeed.
