Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was hit by allied criticism on Saturday from her two remaining 2016 Democratic presidential primary opponents, former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) 16%.
O’Malley and Sanders teamed up on Clinton to rock her on everything from foreign policy to Wall Street, forcing multiple gaffes out of the Democratic frontrunner—as she displayed signs of unease throughout the entire CBS-broadcast Saturday evening affair.
In addition to O’Malley and Sanders criticizing Clinton for not being far-enough left on healthcare or the minimum wage, on foreign policy and on Wall Street policy, the two liberals bashed Clinton over and over again—with a lot of help from the moderators at CBS controlling the flow of the debate in Des Moines, Iowa.

I’m sure she will enjoy debating either Cruz or Trump.
If these two lightweights can get her crazed, just think what Trump is going to do to her...ROFLMAO...
GO TRUMP GO!!!
She’ll play the victim card and claim they “invaded her space”.
Willing sycophants in the media will help.
She’ll play the victim card and claim they “invaded her spaceâ€.
...yep. Same at Mizzou. Straight out of “Rules for Radicals”.
Wait for the "she was verbally raped" indignation.
I liked O Malley’s closing statement when he said how we need new people and new ideas, not divisive polarizing candidates from the past. That was quite a slam at Hillary. Anyone else agree that was quite an attack on her???
I did not hear the debate. As you explain it I think it is no more than our candidates are saying to JEB??? Is it the “don’t attack the women as you would the men” attitude?
I should have said I am glad they pointed out the past as a failure.
She is skilled in fending off others who, like her, do not understand that the "People's" Constitution was designed to chain down and strictly limit the arrogance, power, and monarchy-like government she envisions for America.
That Constitution also places those same "chains" on persons of the Republican variety who see themselves as all-powerful and able to execute whatever powers they, as individuals, see fit to impose.
The Clintons' "progressive" world view is not compatible with individual liberty for "the People" who are, in the words of Justice Story, "the KEEPERS of the Constitution" which limits their power to coerce and control.
Nothing "questionable" about the Clintons' so-called "benevolence"--either when they are holding pubic office, or, through their Foundation's activities.
There is nothing "benevolent" or "compassionate" about using America's laws to "take" the earnings of some citizens in order to buy votes and power from other citizens with those "taken" dollars.
Years ago, Dr. Thomas Sowell made an observation that the so-called "vision" of the liberals sounds good, but the results of implementation of that "vision" are not those promised and lead, instead, to dependency and enslavement--not a benevolent good.
America's Founders understood such power-hungry individuals and their less-than-benevolent motives, as was clearly articulated by John Adams in his letter to Thomas Jefferson, February 2, 1816:
"Power always thinks it has a great soul, and vast views, beyond the comprehension of the weak; and that it is doing God service, when it is violating all His laws. Our passions, ambition, avarice, love, resentment, etc., possess so much metaphysical subtlety, and so much overpowering eloquence, that they insinuate themselves into the understanding and the conscience, and convert both to their party." - John Adams letter to Thomas Jefferson, Feb. 2, 1816In his TownHall piece, Bialosky states: "The disastrous earthquake that left 230,000 dead and nearly leveled the entire country was ripe for Clinton mischief. The statement that most captured my attention was the quote of what The Economist said, which is 'The strange multi-dimensional role that Mr. Clinton as co-chair of the IHRC (Interim Haiti Recovery Commission), special UN envoy, former US president, spouse of the US secretary of state, and head of his own foundation which supports projects in the country, will continue to lead to confusion about for who he advocates and to whom he ultimately answers.' What could possibly go wrong there?"
John Adams' words described almost perfectly the pair of individuals whose access to power has enabled them to "insinuate themselves" in such misleading and insidious ways into America's national life.
“Willing sycophants in the media will help.”
Lead by dumb women, mostly one’s who’ve had children out of wedlock and are looking for handouts. The War on Women really is women not wanting to accept the reality that they can’t drop their pants without consequences. The want Hitlary to “kiss it and make it all better for them!”
Brenie hit her on her extensive ties to Wall Street. That is a winning line. If she is “an enemy of Wall Street” why is Wall Street one of the primary source of funding to her campaign?
This is such a great pic off of Breitbart.
There's Hillary with her perpetual Joker grin waving at whoever she always sees out in the crowd, and Bernie Sanders looking constipated wondering do I actually have to stand next to this retarded cow?
Bovine Scat. VOX has determined that Hillary was the clear winner.
Does Bernie Sanders really have any real support out there other than family members and those looking for a pay off?
Every time I hear him speak I am shocked at the stupidity of his arguments!
I turned my radio off when the Democrap debate came on. Absolutely no reason to waste my time listening to what surely would have infuriated me. Spent the time more productively cleaning the litter box and doing the dishes.
Actually, yes. He has some supporters. While thinking about that, contemplate our failing school system that no longer teaches logic, reasoning and critical thinking.
I don’t think so. These two boneheads didn’t lay a finger on her. Not one that will have any lasting impact anyway. This is a coronation, not a real primary.
Clinton is an extremely accomplished liar and amateurs like Sanders and O’Malley are not going to stop her.
Unless she drops dead or is arrested, Hillary is going to be the Dem candidate.
