Taking as much money as she did from blue cross and blue shield kind of hurts the idea that you are a progressive. Several other camdidates might only want public option but they want to get money out of politics. Ah well. Not like sp is doable at the state level. Sated was too nerdy for Michigan but I would love to see him as secretary of HHS under a dem president.
Are you guys SERIOUSLY going to make EVERY election a reprise of Bernie vs. Hillary?!
It's not about Bernie! It's about money in politics! Stacey Abrams, Kara Eastman, and others supported Hillary but I'm not shouting #bernieorbust at them. Nor am I at candidates like Dean Phillips in MN-3 who are not as progressive but they aren't bought! I know Whitmer came out in favor of abolishing Ice which is a bold move. But she is not in the same league as people who may have supported Hillary but ran to the left socially and economically.
On everything but healthcare, Whitmer is pretty progressive. Wants to gut RTW, pro-$15 min wage, pro-infrastructure developments.
