I've heard arguments to the effect that politicians who are too clean simply don't succeed, because people don't want to give you big campaign checks unless they have Compromat on you.

Both are about as loyal as any Dem foot soldiers you could name. Sanders, in particular, has been at least as zealous on Israel as Biden throughout his career.

Bernie disagrees with the Neoliberal rhetoric and wants to save capitalism from itself. But he's staunchly partisan.
