At the risk of inciting dill's counter-narrative ire, does anyone here really think Hillary cares about the middle class and poor outside of her deriving power from them? All you have to do is listen to how she treated people at the WH when she was First Lady. Do you think Harry Reid lies awake at night languishing over the plight of the poor? I'm not saying there aren't any that care, but I would think most are relative newcomers to Washington.
I think there are more that care than we often realize. The problem is that the political situation is in such a state that doing anything about it is not going to happen. Now, I don't think the Clintons care, or most of the Democratic establishment, but there are still a fair amount of people in our government, and not just elected officials, that care.
