You Clintonites better prepare yourselves. It's one thing to be attacked from an enemy than be attacked from a friend. When a friend trashes you, it will be taken personal ex: As a Democrat, you're saying I'm a bad Democrat. That's below the belt. It's an attack at the core. Trump is going to be attaking from a different angle. That's a whole other story. Besides, ya'll act like she can't take his attacks. The point is, Why should she? She won already and should be focusing on Trump but instead Bernie is trying to burn down her campaign not caring that he's helping Trump by his continued attacks.

Hillary got really nasty towards Obama in '08, she would say things like "Shame on you Barack Obama". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katharine Hepburn 4,607 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 It's improbable for her to loose unless she loses her super delegates (which is very unlikely) or she looses the rest of the states (also very unlikely as she'll win nearly all of New Jersey and DC). xoxo Joanne Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entire point of this ad is to criticize Hillary's response and try to build on it. Please tell me how it's not negative, even if it may or may not be correct? 25 minutes ago, Larry Hill said: Bernie's camp admitted it themselves. They are aiming to hurt her. Not elevate the issues or focus on his moribund campaign. Instead, his focus is on tearing her down. If that's not "going negative" then what is? He's coming across like a sore losers to his nonfans and even some his voters. http://m.dailykos.com/story/2016/05/19/1528529/-Sanders-Camp-will-Burn-It-Down-to-hurt-Hillary There's a big difference between going negative, and commenting on your opponent. He's run no negative ads against her, nothing close to "going negative". You guys are just trying to make headlines, apply at buzzfeed.

He's implying that it's insulting to OTHERS that Hillary refused. He is not commenting on his opponent when he says that. He's creating perceptions without justifiable proof. Also he said this: "She is not prepared to have a discussion with me about how she will help the Californians address the major crises that we face" When he very well knows why she refused and it's because she's done with him. He's framing it in a different context to suit his purposes. Why is he saying she's not prepared? That's going negative. This is a negative ad. Look at the title of the ad. It says "Clinton Insults". --- But feel free to believe what you want. Edited just now by LebaneseDude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didymus 34,380 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Why did she cancel though? I feel like if Hillary said Bernie insulted the LGBT community for cancelling that irrelevant AIDS thing, Hillary supporters would be saying it was legit and justified, so.. I don't see anything wrong with this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some sources say she said she would consider it, recent ones say they actually did agree to have the debate. Anyway, doesn't matter. I just don't think what Bernie said was that bad. It was negative but transparent. It's obvious there's a double standard (if Hillary had said this, you would've defended it) but that's ok, it's expected just like this transparent negativity is expected.

Well I would perhaps justify her usage of it if I found it rational, but no I wouldn't defend the notion that it was not negative. That would be clear. But no she never accepted. "Hillary Clinton will not debate Bernie Sanders in California, her top campaign spokeswoman said Monday. Declining to participate in the Fox News debate — which Sanders had agreed to — is another clear sign that Clinton and her top aides are fully focused on the general election against Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee."

Bernie is an Independent And Hillary said in the past she's not sure he's a real Democrat lol. I think many of us saw this coming. None of this will matter as I'm sure Bernie will endorse her as he doesn't want Trump to win either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
