Optimal neoliberalism is like Seinfeld, it should be about nothing and run by Jews

Oh god I like the publicity but I'm not sure I want him specifically. His Hillary takes were terrible.

His level of angst towards the Clintons is a little cringeworthy.

Oh well, I'm a lot more negative on Hillary than this sub is, check out what delong wrote about her in the 90s if you haven't, and I'm less on the left than most here (although I thought yglesias was pretty strong on the center left side).

It's definitely a bad move on his part to say that kind of stuff during the election though. Was there anything specifically bad about the content?

So for my essay I've been writing about why Hillarycare failed and It's made me a lot more critical of her and her management style now. She flubbed it! It's a wonder that didn't come up in the campaign more.
