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."

"Barack Obama is not Bernie Sanders, let's not play cheap games here," he said.

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.

Hard to separate the two.
No, I won't say it.

but....... hillary is hillary

"Bill said 'traumatic differences'????"

Better put some ice on it or, maybe, Berngay?
Can anybody photoshop a tube of Berngay for me?

I can’t stand Sanders, however, admire his purity of love of the wrong economic and cultural systems of government. He’s indeed a pure wacko.

That said, the Clinton mafia must have gotten to him to not challenge the fraud...(.50)**6 REALLY HAPPENED??? I kinda doubt it. No challenge from Sanders? Hmm.

Yeah he is...Bernie’s just white.

[Pining_4_TX]

Syphilis will do that.

[nascarnation]

How would that affect Hillary's candidacy?

I'll boldly state that the death of Bill Clinton prior to Nov would guarantee a media-orchestrated outpouring of grief that would put Hillary in the WH for 8 years

[Bogie]

Well hey, it’s getting good.

[beethovenfan]

Well, that’s a positive point right there.

[who_would_fardels_bear]

There's a good campaign slogan for Sanders:

Bernie: The guy who knows what IS is!

[IWONDR]

“Bill Clinton argued that Sanders policy positions are a red flag from some Democratic voters”

i wonder what Bill meant by referencing a RED flag in association with BS policy positions?

The King of Cheap Games should know
