Bernie Sanders’ health care plan yesterday, calling it “a recipe for gridlock”. This time, Clinton’s subtler critique was to couple Sanders’ goals with those of Hillary Clinton, and diligently explain why her prescription would be more effective. “I believe, thanks to you, I will be a better president”.

“Hillary Clinton is the only candidate committed to common-sense gun violence reform and she talks about it everywhere she goes”, Ferguson said.
Meanwhile, likely Republican caucus-goers are more divided when it comes to who would best handle foreign policy, with Trump (27%), Rubio (26%) and Cruz (25%) in a virtual three-way split.

As the race tightens, Hillary Clinton turned to a 23-year-old pop star for a little boost of confidence. She’s painting him as an idealist, and in her speech, she had some new lines. Other powerful female celebrities such as Beyoncé, Kim Kardashian, and Olivia Wilde have been seen at Clinton events, or, at the very least, seen snapping selfies with her.

“I think what we have got to do is move as aggressively as we can to normalize relations with Iran, understanding that Iran’s behavior in so many ways is something that we can disagree with”, Sanders replied.
