And this is a community that will have absolutely no sympathy whatsoever for whatever spin is put forth to justify Hillary taking $11.8 million in speaking fees from the nation's largest banks, drug and tech companies, while she campaigns as a "progressive who gets things done." Hillary and her supporters could produce world-class spin that has Chris Matthews, Anderson Cooper and the Washington Post editorial board doing cartwheels down Pennsylvania Avenue, but it simply will not work with these prospective voters who will dismiss it as the same old bullshit.
Hillary has a real problem here, and ignoring it will not make it go away.
