There's not a moderate running on either side in 2016 ... HUGE surprise, what do ya know?
No there is, it's Hillary Clinton
Anyway I'm sad to see how predictable it is that the #moderate candidate lived up to his #moderate billing, as he has been doing throughout the campaign.
The politics of other countries are irrelevant to our Presidential election, and Hillary Clinton is a run-of-the-mill, standard liberal Democrat.
Her supporters can't shout to the Sanders fans that she's a true progressive and then turn around to others and say how moderate she is. Name one issue she parts with liberal Democrats on. Glass Stegal?? LOL, it is a far left position to want to re-instate it, even if you think it'd be a good idea. Bernie Sanders represents the far left of American politics, and Hillary is lurching toward him any chance she gets. She's not, by any reasonable measure, a moderate Democrat.
We're simply not going to have a pro-life Dem or a pro-choice Republican (or their equivalents on other issues) anytime soon.
P.S. When people say Rubio is the moderate candidate, I think they more mean he's now the main candidate more "fiscally-oriented" Republican voters are flocking to in an attempt to stop the religious freak and the racist xenophobe from leading the party to a national embarrassment.
