For the Clintons, New Hampshire is the state of 2nd chances

Sanders, for his part, defended Hillary Clinton’s honor claiming his campaign is not behind the attacks, condemning anything remotely associated with the Clintons’ accusations. If you think, that a boyfriend can influence you, wait till you have sons and daughters.

Former President Bill Clinton, speaking Sunday in support of his wife, accused male Sanders backers – affectingly known as “Bernie Bros” – of engaging in “sexist” and “profane” online attacks of female Clinton supporters. “Enough is enough. If you’ve got something to say, say it directly”.

They sport “Grandmas for Bernie” buttons, laud him for his vision, and seem content to pass up the opportunity to put Clinton on a historic path to the White House, betting that there will be another chance down the line.

“There would be no Marissa Meyer, Sheryl Sandberg, Carly Fiorina, if it were not for the work, the road that she has paved, she and Madeleine Albright and Gloria Steinem, these icons of the women’s movement”, said Saal. But it is clear that earning the support of young women in particular is on her mind.

He detailed Hillary Clinton’s healthcare reform initiatives and education reform programs before defending her legacy saying, “that doesn’t strike me as establishment”.

“They are supporting me because they know me”, Clinton said of the members of the Vermont congressional delegation.

“When you’re making a revolution, you can’t be too careful with the facts”, Mr. Clinton said at a rally in nearby Milford on Sunday night, mocking Mr. Sanders’ frequent calls for political upheaval.

“I believe that so much of the anger, the insecurity, the fear and worry that people feel now about the economy, about our prospects, about what is going to happen to young people coming out of college with debt, or unable to find a job that really gives them the best possibly opportunities is related to the choices that were made starting in the Bush administration”, Hillary Clinton said.

The campaign statement came after Clinton’s husband, former President Bill Clinton, said Sanders was being hypocritical for criticizing her for accepting money from Wall Street when the senator benefited from the same money raised by the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, which raises money and then helps Democratic Senate candidates.

Tad Devine, Mr Sanders’ chief strategist, said: “It’s disappointing that President Clinton has chose to launch these attacks”. We will do everything we can and I think we have tried. I could write a post about how I prefer Pink Lady apples to Fujis in my crumbles and I’d have five people calling me a dumb, ugly bitch by the end of the day. We can’t control what they say. Even though she like Clinton and voted for her in the 2008 primary, she said there’s just something special about the 74-year-old Sanders that even reminds her of a young John F. Kennedy. “I want my first female president to be more than a symbol, I want her to have politics that can revolutionize”. “Whoever gets the nomination will get my support”. Her struggle to attract women voters in the Granite State reflects Sanders’ overall strength in the state that borders his Vermont home base; he leads her 61% to 35% in the poll conducted February 4-February 8.
