Clinton And Sanders Campaigns Spar Over Email Reversal

In the Democratic debate last month, Mr. Sanders said voters were “sick and tired” of the focus on Mrs. Clinton’s “damn emails”. Lindsey Graham, whose home state is South Carolina, would be hard to beat in a general election. Up next are a series of speeches created to answer questions about where he would take the nation as president. Clinton exclusively used a private email server and account for her government work, which she now says was a mistake.

“This has and will remain a campaign about issues for Hillary Clinton, and that’s what she’ll continue to talk about on the trail”, Clinton spokesman Josh Schwerin said in a statement to NBC News.

Sanders’ strategists, however, don’t feel that they have.

Huffmon noted: “South Carolina Democratic Primary Voters appear to be ambivalent about Trump with more than 1 in 5 viewing him as the greatest threat to a 2016 Democratic victory while almost 4 in 10 speculate that opposing Trump would make the path of the Democratic nominee much easier”. “I hope in that doesn’t happen”. Clinton leads by a 3-to-1 margin among voters 55-64 and leads among those 65 and older, but they represent the highest share – 28 percent – of undecided voters.

A Monmouth University poll of New Hampshire Democrats released the same day found Clinton has retaken the lead over Sanders (48 percent to 45 percent) in the Granite State.

Sanders also spoke of his long-time opposition to the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, an agreement Clinton once called the “gold standard” of trade accords but more recently came out against.

At the same time, primary voters from both parties name “honest” and “trustworthy” as the two most important positive words to describes the next President of the United States, according to a graphic from the poll obtained by the Washington Post.

Speaking to NPR’s Morning Edition on Thursday, Sanders said that “if the election were held today … just among the African-American vote, we would lose”. From there, he’ll head to Las Vegas where he’ll address an immigrant rights organization. Sanders and I have a disagreement on guns and gun safety is something that voters need to consider.

“Twenty years from now, or thirty years from now, when people look back it will not be Hillary’s emails that are significant”, he said. This might not harm her political aspirations with her base in the Democratic Party; but it will be a serious political problem for her with independent voters, without whose support she simply can not be elected.

Thirty-four percent of Clinton supporters, and 46 percent of Sanders supporters reported that they would have supported Biden over their first choice if he had made a decision to run. Yet an analysis of the most recent polling numbers show that the self-described democratic socialist may already have peaked. And Clinton’s campaign announced that she will file her paperwork Monday in Concord.

Instead, Sanders should have kept his mouth shut regarding his opinion that Americans are sick of hearing about it. There obviously has been no benefit to the man basically kissing her backside publicly at the debate. “There are a few obstacles for her to get past”.
