(16,245 posts)They are exactly what is wrong with the party- selling us out for pharma money. Next time it will be selling out for some other corporate reason. This is exactly why people are cynical about politics. Booker is particularly egregious because of his grandstanding on issues that cost him nothing. If there were money in supporting Sessions for AG, he would not have criticized him. I don't believe this guy is in it for anything other than ambition.
Tell me why I should be loyal to a party that is composed largely of sell-outs who care more about where their campaign contributions come from than what people actually need. That whole list reeks. Every last one of them got major bucks from pharma. Booker happens to be third in the list of who took money from them (the top two are Republicans), which is why he is getting criticized for it.
