Clinton And Sanders Duel In Ads Ahead Of Iowa

Bernie Sanders chipping away at Hillary Clinton’s grip on the Democratic nomination, the differences are spilling out into the open as the candidates campaign across snow-covered Iowa. But he said those would either be paid by Wall Street or offset by the elimination of insurance premiums. And you have to say, “Why are they throwing all of that?”

Mr Obama has not endorsed any candidate and the Sanders campaign has applauded his “even-handedness” throughout the campaign. Here’s what the three candidates said to try to win over voters. Clinton responded later with little of the feistiness she has shown recently on the campaign trail, instead reverting to her earlier posture of confident front-runner, emphasizing her qualifications for the office and trying to avoid engaging her rivals.

Clinton lost in Iowa in 2008 because of her lack of a strong ground game and this time her team made sure that would not be a problem. He added that executive experience is important, “but judgment is also important”.

A weekly tracking poll by NBC News and Survey Monkey, put Mr Trump’s lead at 39 per cent among Republicans 20 points ahead of Mr Cruz.

“If Michael Bloomberg — and I have nothing against him personally — were a normal person with the same ideas, he would never in a million years have thought about running for president”, Sanders said. For some reason, Democrat women really, really believe America is a horribly oppressive and misogynistic country (could it be a liberal problem, since that’s who they surround themselves with?) and believe every word Ms. Clinton says about inequality.

“We can not continue to have a government dominated by the billionaire class and a Congress that continues to work for the interest of the people on top while ignoring working families”, he said.

“I voted against the war in Iraq”, said Sanders.

“This would be so unimaginable”, Sanders said.

“It was an engineering challenge, and we are up to this as Americans, but incrementalism, half-steps, splitting the loaf – that’s not going to get us, and that’s not what your generation wants”. “You can just kind of tell when someone isn’t honest, but Bernie’s been saying the same thing for decades and he doesn’t sway on the issues. Count me in as somebody who strongly supports them”.

Sanders has aggressively campaigned on college campuses across Iowa.

Another questioner said he was a “lukewarm” supporter of hers until he saw how she endured 11 hours of testimony before the House Benghazi committee, and now, he is “gung-ho”.
