New York Times: “Mrs. Clinton’s windfalls from Wall Street banks and other financial services firms — $3 million in paid speeches and $17 million in campaign contributions over the years — have become a major vulnerability in states with early nomination contests. Some party officials who remain undecided in the 2016 presidential race see her as overly cozy with big banks and other special interests. At a time when liberals are ascendant in the party, many Democrats believe her merely having ‘represented Wall Street as a senator from New York,’ as Mrs. Clinton reminded viewers in an October debate, is bad enough.”

Fueling Political Wire, One Cup at a Time
Every morning before the sun’s up, I sit down to work on Political Wire with a cup of Trade Coffee beside me.
It’s become part of the ritual — opening the laptop, scanning the news, and taking that first sip of a roast matched perfectly to my taste. Trade connects me with small roasters across the country, delivering beans that are always fresh and far better than what you’ll find at the grocery store.
If you love coffee as much as I do, use this link to get 50% off and taste the difference for yourself.
