Bill Clinton rips Sanders backers

Gathered below are seven things Hillary Clinton did to piss off Democrats, and fail her own campaign. “It hasn’t changed his view, well it didn’t change my view or my vote either”, Clinton said while campaigning in New Hampshire on the eve of the primary in the state. “I wish I had more confidence in Sanders as far as world politics”.

Sanders hit the high points of his typical stump speech: Wall Street, corporate welfare, a “rigged economy”, a “corrupt campaign finance system”, the need for a $15 per hour minimum wage and the reduced earning power of the average family. “And just remember, there’s a special place in hell for women who don’t help each other”, Albright said.

We welcome a vigorous debate on the issues, and we admire what Bernie Sanders brings to the 2016 campaign, but we reject innuendo and insinuations targeting Hillary Clinton’s integrity.

Clinton is fresh off a narrow victory over Sanders in Iowa’s caucuses and aides say her performance there, where she became the first woman to win, has left her emboldened and relieved.

On health care, Clinton accused Sanders of not having a plan that was properly accounted for.

“I want my first female president to be more than a symbol”, Ratajkowski said.

These concerns were magnified after Clinton eked out a win in Iowa, carrying the state by less than 1%, and the fact that the former secretary of state is trailing Sanders in polls ahead of Tuesday’s New Hampshire primary.

Two days before voters in New Hampshire will cast ballots, Clinton traveled to Flint, Michigan, on Sunday to address the city’s water crisis, vowing to make a “personal commitment” to help the city’s residents deal with contaminated water. The candidate herself played good cop, thanking the young people supporting her opponent and for “understanding the importance of getting involved”.

Still, New Hampshire is known as a “late-deciding” state, where voters take their time and often meet candidates on multiple occasions before finally making their choice.

Clinton has made pandering to women a core tenet of her campaign platform. Still, Sanders’ attacks on Clinton as an incrementalist who is too timid to advocate for more sweeping changes resonate with some Democrats. “And I want them to know even if they don’t support me, I support them”.

“We’re moving into a different phase of the campaign”, Clinton told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow.

The vote in New Hampshire also holds important symbolism to the Clintons.

Mike Briggs, spokesman for Sanders campaign, called Bill Clinton’s comments “disappointing”, in this statement to CNN.

“It bothers me to be in an American election where a debate is impossible because if you disagree, you’re just part of the establishment”, Mr. Clinton told a crowd at Manchester Community College.
