Bill Clinton Attacks Bernie Sanders

The entire experience made her a deeply vulnerable frontrunner out of the gate, and underscored a lack of trust between Clinton and her operatives, many of whom were former Obama staffers that she didn’t consider part of her inner circle of trust.

In recent polling, Sanders leads Clinton in New Hampshire by more than 12 points.

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders has erased Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s wide lead for the Democratic presidential nomination since the start of year, putting the two in a dead heat nationally, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll. The problem with shifting explanations and shifting descriptions is that they are usually signs of motivated dishonesty.

During her remarks today, she called the situation in Flint “immoral” and said that if a situation like this had happened in a wealthier community, “I think we all know we would have had a solution yesterday”. Last week she narrowly beat Sanders in the Iowa caucuses, the first nominating contest for the November 8 election.

Democratic presidential race bet Hillary Clinton defended the comments of Madeleine Albright saying “there is a special place in hell” for women who do not support her as according to The Guardian.

Responding to Bill Clinton’s attack, Sanders’ campaign manager Jeff Weaver told Bloomberg “It’s unfortunate that President Clinton is choosing to engage in the kind of negative attacks that he is on the eve of the New Hampshire primary”.

First of all, here, there’s never been a candidate bordering New Hampshire that didn’t win the primary in an open challenge including when I ran.

“I practically fell out of my chair when I saw it”, Bill Clinton said. “Anybody who takes money from Goldman Sachs couldn’t possibly be President”, Clinton said.

“She’s getting it from the right, she’s getting it from the left”, he said.

The strategy carries echoes of Clinton’s 2008 come-from-behind victory in New Hampshire.

Meanwhile, another supporter of Hillary Clinton, Gloria Steinem released a public apology after her comments on gender provoked many.

At a rally in a school Mr Clinton said his wife’s supporters had suffered “unbelievable personal attacks” on the internet from those of Mr Sanders. “I don’t know that there is ever any absolute answer, like, “OK, universe, here I am, watch me roar” or ‘Oh, my gosh, I can’t do it, it’s just overwhelming, I have to retreat'”. “I respect all the work she’s done as well as the experience she has”, Fagan said. Sanders in the final days of the New Hampshire campaign.

“It’s disgusting. We don’t want that crap”, Sanders said during an interview on CNN on Sunday when asked about the so-called “Bernie Bros”.

It’s a line of attack that may end up working no better in the Democratic primaries than it did in the Republican primaries, true believers aren’t easily swayed with facts, but that’s weakened by Bill Clinton hitting his own weak point.
