Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders sparring escalates over new debate
She also pointed to a press release from today that states, “It’s disappointing that Senator Sanders has abandoned his claims of a positive campaign in order to parrot Karl Rove’s attacks against Hillary Clinton”, said Christina Reynolds of the Clinton campaign in the release.
Weaver suggested that the Clinton campaign was only now calling for more debates because the “dynamics of the race have changed and Sen”.
If Clinton wins in the caucus, it would give her the momentum and speed when heading into New Hampshire, where she is barely behind Sanders.
Clinton’s two main Democratic challengers, Sanders and former Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley, have long called for more debates.
“We are not going to engage in a process where the only time we schedule debates is when the Clinton campaign feels that they are under pressure and they need to have another debate”, he said.
Symone Sanders, a spokeswoman for Sanders, had initially argued that candidates risked being barred by the DNC from future encounters if they chose to participate in unofficial debates.
Among likely Republican primary voters in New Hampshire, the survey shows Trump with a commanding lead over Cruz, his closest rival. “Sanders will change his mind and join us”, Clinton told MSNBC’s Chris Matthews in a phone interview on Wednesday, according to CNN.
The debate, should it happen, would not be one of the six contests originally sanctions by the DNC.
The discussion was sparked by an interview Obama gave to Politico’s Glenn Thrush in which the president purportedly could not hide his obvious affection for Clinton or the feeling she best understands the demands of the White House. “One in March, April and May and none on a Friday, Saturday or holiday weekend”, Weaver said.
But what if all three candidates participated in the unsanctioned debate?
When asked why she is not supporting fellow “feminist icon” Hillary Clinton, Sarandon cited Clinton’s vote for the Iraq War and added that it’s “patronizing to women to think that we all follow our genitalia to pick candidates”.
Presidential candidates often release their medical records in some sort of public way to assure the public that the candidate they are throwing their support behind has a chance of living out their four-year-term.
