Donald Trump Thinks It’s ‘Very Possible’ the Democratic Party Told CNN This
The five Democratic candidates for president – former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, U.S. Sen.
“I think they talked about more real issues, like climate change and the economy”, said Labkovsky.
After a surprised smile from Clinton, and a friendly handshake, the topic was finally put to rest – though Sanders’ kindness should not be mistaken as a concession. They either didn’t take advantage of opportunities to, like Sanders sidestepping a chance to blast her over her use of a personal email account while serving as secretary of state, or they tried, respectfully, but couldn’t trip her up.
It didn’t take long for the dissenting opinions to come pouring into by inbox.
That’s when Sanders chimed in with his support, while acknowledging that it “may not be great politics”, to do so.
In the hours following last night’s presidential debate, Bernie Sanders managed to pull in close to $1.3 million in contributions.
And it isn’t as if Sanders’ supporters are going anywhere; the diehards will surely see him as the victor of this debate, and those who support him for strategic reasons (because they believe it will move the party in their direction) have no reason to give that up.
“Because it was the right thing to do”, he replied.
The socialist candidate also came out on top in the Time, Daily Kos and MSNBC online polls.
Before the Hillary Clinton coronation begins could we just re-roll the CNN debate tape briefly. Danielle Fallon, a junior, said it was a close tie between Sanders and Clinton as the victor . “I know a lot of people were reading Donald Trump’s Twitter during the debate too”. When asked whether he’d been tough enough on the issue as a senator, she said simply: “No. Not at all”.
I had forgotten what it was like to watch a debate where I agreed on the issues with most of the candidates.
IT WAS supposed to be the night when the Democratic presidential candidates slugged it out against each other.
Pundits were quick to praise Clinton’s preparation as the debate wrapped up, citing her deft handling of a slew of criticisms.
But the memorable moment that may have stolen the show belonged to Bernie Sanders.
O’Malley introduced himself as a can-do former governor, pointing to his work to raise the minimum wage, support gay marriage and address gun control in Maryland.
Clinton barely seemed to notice that she’s running against O’Malley, Webb and Chafee.
Clinton laughed when we asked her about it, but said she’s had to deal with Republican attacks for years – all the way from the time she lived in the White House to present controversies over Benghazi and her emails.
