Bill Clinton, Of All People, Accused Sanders Supporters Of Sexism
Democratic presidential candidate Sen.
“People who have gone online to defend Hillary and explain – just explain – why they supported her have been subject to vicious trolling and attacks that are literally too profane – not to mention sexist – to repeat”, President Clinton said. “Now if I said that, ‘They’re for Bernie because that’s where the boys are, ‘ you’d swat me”.
On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are looking for a win Tuesday to claim momentum before S.C. Democrats vote February 27.
Chuck Todd predicts: “Nobody gets out” after N.H. Clinton is desperately attempting to narrow Sanders’ lead, but she has been thwarted by a startling decline in support from women – especially young, idealistic college students who one might assume would want to help make history by electing the first female USA president.
But in an approximately 50-minute speech Sunday in Milford, New Hampshire, Bill Clinton laid into Sanders by name, painting his campaign tactics as hypocritical and unfair and accusing some of his supporters of sexism. “Bernie’s doing well, not only here but elsewhere”, Devine said. The problem for the Sanders campaign is that expectations are sky high.
Manchester, New Hampshire (CNN)Hillary and Bill Clinton didn’t back off their critiques of Bernie Sanders during a rally in Manchester on Monday, despite receiving some negative press for them the day earlier. “That makes me feel confident in him”.
The next time Clinton hits you, quote Clinton hitting you, you just say, “No attack ever fed a hungry child”, or whatever matters, “No attack ever helped a bedraggled union worker” or “no attack ever paid for a tax increase”. Clinton has amassed at least 392 delegates and Sanders at least 42; the magic number to clinch the nomination is 2,382. The neighboring Vermont senator leads the former secretary of state by double digits in polls here – erasing her more than 50 point advantage since last summer and outspending her on the airwarves. He was also narrowly favored by women.
She then asked, “Why should I vote for you in the Democratic primary tomorrow?”
“And despite my neat hairdo and GQ type of outfit, the media and the pundits didn’t quite consider us a serious type of candidacy, and, in fact, the word “fringe” was used a couple of times”, Sanders said. He added: “We don’t want that sexist crap”. Almost three-in-five registered independents favor Sanders over Clinton, according to a recent poll.
Bill has hit the trail in New Hampshire, which holds its primary Tuesday, to campaign on behalf of his wife. She traversed the state’s snow-covered highways with her husband and their daughter in a push to maintain her edge in national polls and reassure the Democratic establishment backing her campaign.
