I voted for Hillary in the general of course. If you looked at her voting record and are comfortable with the positions that she took over the years than I'm glad you were happy to vote for her. I found her record wanting on a number of issues that I care deeply about, so I voted for someone else in the primary.

Right, her voting record. The one that puts here squarely on the liberal side of Congress.

Yep that's the one - She is a liberal; just not as liberal I would prefer, on a number of issues.

You might not have called her a corporatist. But a whole lot of people did. Constantly.
