It seems as though the candidates most likely to rise in favor with the political establishment are those with skeletons in their closets.
They have things in their past which make them vulnerable to being blackmailed. They make excellent puppets for the political elite, because they are much easier to control than the men with unblemished records of honesty and integrity.
If you think this is brutal, wait until the general election. Donald Trump is the only candidate who is not bought and paid for by lobbyists and big corporations.
Just the thought of "billary " for potus scares the dickens out of me.
