Sanders To Clinton : "I Will Match My Record Against Yours ANYDAY..."

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) accused Hillary Clinton of repeatedly taking his record out of context by cherry picking smaller portions of larger bills to cast a false image of him.

"What the secretary is doing tonight, and has done very often, is take large pieces of legislation and take pieces out of it. No, I did not oppose the bailout for the support of the auto industry; no, I do not support vigilantes — and that is a horrific statement, an unfair statement to make," Sanders said during Wednesday's Univision debate.

it will stick to Bernie. It didn't work, though, so they've moved on to the kitchen sink. That hasn't been going too well for them, either, though.

it was. When you vote for a bill you should know the entire content.

He never claimedhe didn't know the content, either. That's your nonsense.

Bernie said he didn't want to vote for the largest transfer of wealth from the poor and middle class to the already wealthy in human history. Thanks to DC kabuki, he did not have the option of voting on the auto bailout separately. That's what he said.

Your candidate keeps trying to deceive American voters with half truths and getting nailed for it. Shame on that kind of tactic.

Carry on.

and Hillary say OK Bernie..I was able to get China, Russia, and the EU to support sanctions on Iran, and vote to prevent going to war, as well has stop nuclear proliferation in the middle east..What has been your major foreign affairs accomplishment, and please don't say voting against the Iraq war, you had to do more then that...Next on domestic affairs back in 1993 I worked very hard against the Republican naysayers to pass the Chip Program, and then in 1997 the SCHIP Program..For the past 23 years years over 8 million children have received health coverage and many lives have been saved because of it..What has been your major domestic accomplishment? Oh, there is none....Ok then just shut up, and stop all the arm waving and finger pointing you look like a dam fool!!!!

I am actually pleased to see him show some righteous anger. It is energizing, and it is certainly merited.

would she say the things 3 incorrigible white men (Mook, Brock, Podesta) tell her to say? The Koch, Minutemen, GM bailout trifecta was not Hillary's idea. Why doesn't she put women in those positions? I'm sure it would change the tenor of her campaign. Coming across as a disingenuous incorrigible white man is hurting her.

It was beyond bizarre. Why don't they tell her to just say, look I am a politician
and there are votes I have changed my mind about, and I see that people don't
trust me as much as I would hope they would. I think she would receive more
credit that way.

Her pivot to her husband as a response was off the wall, its like she refuses
to take any risk and just answer the fucking question already.
