I don't quite see how the successful election of Democrats who accept no corporate donations helps those who do, become electable. She ran against a democrat in the primary who was dependent on corporate donations if I am not mistaken, and beat him. As such, she seems to be unconstrained rather than the opposite - one of the only ones. If anything, it seems to me, she sets and example to those who do accept corporate donations, that they don't have to. It would certainly be a clever trick if the Democrat Party establishment had been able to get her elected against one of their own, and are now calling in that debt of obligation. - Shyaku
