Hillary a Progressive or...?

If elected, Clinton under pressure to appoint tough Wall Street sheriffs

Democratic Party progressives intent on reining in Wall Street are pushing Hillary Clinton to choose people to head the Treasury, SEC and other agencies who will crack down on big banks if she wins the White House on Nov. 8.

“Do they have a proven track record of challenging corporate power?” asked Adam Green of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, a grassroots group aligned with U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, the party’s liberal firebrand.

In meetings with Clinton’s team, progressive groups are urging that she break sharply with the centrist, pro-business bent of some of the economic leaders who served her husband, former President Bill Clinton, and President Barack Obama.

Big U.S. banks are voicing concern about both Clinton and Donald Trump, her Republican rival who has accused corporate America of buying influence in Washington.

Yes Liz is showing her concern that Hillz is bullshitting about controlling Wall Street.

She (Hillz) has no obligation to heed the advice of progressives like Warren or Bernie Sanders, who challenged Clinton for the Democratic nomination. But Clinton risks a damaging intraparty rift early in her White House tenure if she ignores them.

She'll be too old for a second term, so she can stiff the Progressives once again. Will she appoint hard charging regulators or lap dogs?

LOL I doubt it.

If Wall St. had any concerns there would be a YEEEWG! push for Trump.

Wall St. wants Clinton, because they own her.
