Total fucking badass. This woman really represents what the Democrats ought to be, and indeed, what they purport to be. There's no cowardice here, nor any of the usual patronizing and condescending platitudes about "compromise." Also pertinent here is this November 24 headline from Democracy Now!:
New government data show U.S. corporations made record profits in the third quarter, earning at an annual rate of more than $1.6 trillion. That’s the highest figure since the government began keeping track 60 years ago. Overall corporate earnings are up 28 percent from the same time last year. Companies, however, have not been using the record profits to hire more workers. The Federal Reserve is predicting that the nation’s official unemployment rate will remain over 9 percent for at least another year.Trickle down indeed.
