Clinton laughs when man says he wants to strangle Fiorina

“I will run against anybody they nominate and if it’s him, put on your seat belts”. She said the US also needs to understand the potential costs, saying, “if you have a declaration of war you better have a budget that backs it up”.

The remarks left her vulnerable to Republican charges that she misunderstood or ignored the breadth of problems in veterans’ services. A veteran who was sacked from the company during Fiorina’s tenure as CEO, the supporter stated: “She says she’s a great CEO”.

She has a 28-point, 56 percent to 28 percent advantage over Mr. Sanders among women and a 5-point, 46 percent to 41 percent edge among men.

Christine Quinn, a member of Clinton’s NY Leadership Council and fundraiser for her campaign, called the joke “dangerous rhetoric which perpetuates sexist and misogynistic stereotypes” and cautioned that “if Bernie Sanders does not want to be seen as someone who uses sexist language and perpetuates a unsafe sexist stereotype of strong women, then he should tell his people to stop”.

The 28-second campaign video provides a window into the kind of contrast Clinton will set with the Republicans in a general election, with the campaign painting Republican candidates as backward-looking and out of touch.

“The fact is we need someone who knows how to beat Democrats, who knows how to beat Democrats in a Democratic area”.

“She’s got everything, but it’s her character that I love”, Clark told more than two dozen gathered at the UAW 838 Hall in Waterloo. Just 1 percent said they’d vote for O’Malley in October. Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush pledged to be a commander-in-chief, not a “divider-in-chief”.

Tuesday’s incident isn’t the first time Clinton has lost her composure in front of the camera, although the one in front of the Benghazi committee was much funnier.

The intent was apparent to argue that the kind of rhetoric on display at the debate was just more of the same of what Democrats see as the same old exhausted attacks on the former secretary of state.
