If the Talking Point that wall street is greedy out of control scumbags, which warren uses, is true then yes its pretty inconceivable that they would put money against their own best interests.
Unless of corse they think that Warren will be better for them than Scott Brown.
Sorry, that's right wing hyperbole attributed to what people and Elizabeth Warren are talking about regarding income inequality, rampant and unrestrained WS speculation and no consumer protections.
Obviously there are folks working on Wall Street that see those things as bad for our economy and our country.
I think we'll get to see if she's better.
1) Its not right or left wing anything, its true. She rallies against wall street saying it is corrupt yet wall street is giving her money to try and beat Scott Brown. It has nothing to do with party politics as its just a fact
2) The fact that wall-street is donating money to her means that the wall-streeters who are donating to her think her decisions, as a senator, will be better for their income level than re-electing Scott Brown would be. Again this is not politics, its human nature this time.
Wall Street is giving her money? Link? And please don't try to sluff of DSCC money as "Wall Street" money.
All I have seen is a quote of her saying she wouldn't turn money down because there are people in the industry who want reform. Do you deny that? Is she a hypocrite for accepting my donation?
Scott Brown has accepted oodles of Wall Street money. Do you deny that?
Wall Street is pouring money his way to try to stop Warren from getting elected. Do you deny that?
The narrative floating around here is that she wants to take down Wall St. That she is anti-capitalism. How do you reconcile that narrative with this notion that she is now suddenly bought off by them?
Warren smartly refused to allow herself to be painted in a corner. Had she taken a pledge "not to accept Wall Street money" then there would people lining up to call her out as a hypocrite for taking money from people like me.
This "hypocrisy" claim is nothing but a fabrication.
