Bill Clinton: Bernie Sanders Is No Obama
NBC News ^ | Feb 2 2016, 4:15 pm ET | by Marianna Sotomayor

Former President Bill Clinton on Tuesday said that, as candidates, Bernie Sanders and Barack Obama have "traumatic differences" in appeal — and dispelled any notion that the Vermont senator could beat Hillary Clinton, his wife, in the race for the White House.

Bill Clinton told NBC News' Andrea Mitchell at a campaign event in New Hampshire that President Obama had a different feel than Sanders, calling the president "new, different."

Bill Clinton argued that Sanders policy positions are a red flag from some Democratic voters, an issue that was not a problem between the Democratic candidates in 2008.

"[Hillary Clinton] and President Obama had enormous overlap on what they wanted to do and how they wanted to do it," Bill said.

So if Bill is implying that Hillary IS another Obama, then that’s just one more reason not to support Hillary.

Bill said “traumatic differences”????

Did he really mean “dramatic differences”???

Was he misquoted???

Or did he actually say that???

Is Bill in full control of his faculties anymore??

Cheap games = doubling the national debt in the past 8 years vs. doubling the national debt again in the next 4 years

Which is what Hillary will also do.

**************************

No, he isn't. He believes in what he's saying. He's a credible communist. Hillary, on the other hand, is a malignant sociopath, much like Obama.

Hmmm, both have never had a real job, both are economic illiterates, both are dumber than a rock, and both couldn’t run a lemonade stand.

Sound pretty similar to me.

Oh wait, one of them is not a slimy butt kissing muzzie.

My bad.

Sanders won’t get the Dems’ masters coffee, like Clinton complained that Obama should have been doing.

Hook his aids-looking carcass up to a lie-detector and ask him if he thinks his ‘wife’ is actually ‘alive’, Obama clone or no.....

Bill is a burned-out old man. And so is his wife.

I’m not so sure. Let’s see, washed-up, hyperbolic, dedicated to the destruction of everything honest and good about America, sleazy, mendacious, untrustworthy, over-the-top socialist, power-hungry, disrespectful, hostile, unpatriotic, authoritarian statist: which one am I talking about?
