Bill Clinton attacks ‘sexist’ Bernie Sanders followers

Hillary responded with laughter as Madeleine Albright publicly damned all women who don’t support Clinton for US President.

But just as Clinton is getting active in Texas ahead of the March 1 primary, her top supporters here are calling for more enthusiasm to combat the energetic following of Sanders, the senator from Vermont.

The statement was prompted by Clinton earlier Monday accusing Sanders of engaging in the same behavior for which he has repeatedly criticized her: taking donations from Wall Street.

Executive Councilor Chris Pappas, a Clinton supporter, said: “The people of Manchester are going to decide this election”.

But his remarks on Sunday indicate the Clintons aren’t ready to cede the Granite State.

‘They just know they’ve got to translate that anger to answer and that resentment to results, ‘ he added. “Where everybody who is on the other side is part of some mythical establishment”. And while Fagan said she likes Sanders’ messages on climate change and taking on the banks, she is still undecided and feels a pull toward Clinton.

Bill Clinton has made more subtle jabs at Sanders before, and the campaign has repeatedly noted that Sanders has a proximity advantage.

On Sunday, Bill Clinton unleashed a tirade aimed at people who he alleges are Sanders supporters who he said are making “vicious” and “sexist” comments to Clinton supporters online.

Sanders still leads Clinton 51%-44%, but his lead has shrunk 13 points from the 57%-37% lead that he enjoyed last week.

The Hillary Clinton campaign is on thin ice, and mulling a shocking staff shakeup, according to various media reports. Bill Clinton has gone out there, and he has unleashed his most direct attacks on Crazy Bernie yet.

Sanders also said he takes much smaller donations when he writes to ask for money for senatorial campaigns.

Clinton, introduced at the packed event by former President Bill Clinton and their daughter, Chelsea Clinton, fought back against Sanders’ continued criticism of her for taking donations and speakers’ fees from Wall Street firms.

“It bothers me to be in an election where debate is impossible because if you disagree you are just part of the establishment”, he said.

“A basic lesson in politics is that you can’t browbeat or guilt trip people into backing a candidate”, said Larry J. Sabato, a University of Virginia political scientists and the director of the Center for Politics. “You know… I’m convinced God created pollsters to make astrologers look accurate…” “We’re going to take stock, but it’s going to be the campaign that I’ve got”.
