how Hillary and the Dem Party act, if and when she gets the nomination.

It's not over yet, and plenty can still happen.

I'm just pointing out the way to win in November. The Clintons are nothing if not strategic and ambitious. This is not the historical time to go on doing 90's bullshit.

They could easily adapt, the party could follow suit, and we'd all be the better and happier for it.

I'm not saying there is more than 1 cold chance in Hell that this will happen. But it could happen. And it should happen. And if it doesn't, then you and perhaps I and perhaps many others who have even been loyal decades for decades could actually wish for their mistaken experiment in regressive politics to fail.
