Not as compelling when it's a candidate that has a history of being a war hawk and is in bed with Wallstreet vs. Sanders, perhaps.

There are more people working for "Wallstreet" in New York (461k) than there are people employed in VT (360k). So yes, a senator from NY will be more in bed with "wallstreet" than someone from VT.

I'm calling BS on this. Representing the interests of New York is _not_ what she was criticized for. It was for booking $600,000 "public" (ironic, it was private and secret) speaking events at Goldman Sachs, and such.
