Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders clash as race tightens

In New Hampshire a rural state in the northeastern USA where party primary elections are scheduled February 9 the latest Monmouth University poll showed Snders soaring to a 53 to 39 percent advantage over Clinton. Barack Obama and former Sen.

In New Hampshire, which holds the nation’s first primary, a week after the Iowa caucuses, Bernie Sanders’ lead averages 6.2 points, according to Real Clear Politics. Hillary Clinton has challenged Sanders on taxes, guns and health care in the last week, and Sanders has responded by charging that her campaign is getting desperate. “So instead of making a private insurance premium payment, you’re now going to make a Medicare premium payment”.

“Thanks to his campaign’s integrity, Sanders alone has the potential to unite the movements emerging across the country into one loud, irresistible demand for systemic political change”, the editors wrote.

The only sign of hope is in Iowa, where Clinton is still holding a small lead of under five points.

“No. I don’t believe it’s an attack ad. It’s certainly provocative like my colleague said, but not an attack ad”, said Rachel Brian, rally attendee.

The Washington Post’s analysis shows at this time in 2008, when Clinton was still up against two strong opponents, she was doing much better nationally than she is now.

Clinton’s aides claimed Sanders had broken his pledge to never run a negative advertisement by releasing his 30-second campaign spot on “two Democratic visions for regulating Wall Street”.

“It turns out that what was considered to be in evitable might not be quite so inevitable”, said Sanders, a democratic candidate for President.

Sanders told reporters in New Hampshire that “They’re mad at me today, they’re mad at me yesterday, they’re mad at me tomorrow”.

“We do so now impelled by the awareness that our rigged system works for the few and not for the many”, the editors said.

With recent polls showing we may actually have a race on our hands, the Hillary Clinton campaign is becoming increasingly aggressive in its attacks on Vermont senator Bernie Sanders.

But Kasich also sought to tap into the populist sentiment Sanders’ inequality-focused campaign has tapped. “Iowa Democrats like both major candidates personally; they just like Senator Sanders more”.
