Schultz, added, after playing a clip of Sanders dismissing Bills sex life as a non-issue that Sanders was unwilling to go into the gutter at any level.

Ed gives commentary on Donald Trump saying Bill Clinton's sexual history is fair game if Hillary Clinton wants to play the "Woman" card. (Bernie Sanders thinks he should focus on issues important to America, and Jeb Bush is still fighting for attention.)

I am just saying that, to the GOP, the Clintons have a huge amount of baggage, and no amount of saying that it is wrong to use it will matter in the least.

(14,255 posts)I support Bernie because of the issues. Bottom line.
I am just pointing out that the Clintons have a LOT of baggage.

(44,119 posts)I am truly sorry if I am not articulating this well. No sleep, too much coffee.
My point is the same people who lie about HRC are going to lie about Bernie.
When they lie about Bernie there will be people who believe their lies, just as there are people who believe the lies about HRC.
When they lie about Bernie I plan to push back.

(32,848 posts)The people who lie about HRC, will also lie about Bernie, the sad thing is, not only will you have those on the right spewing, the HRC supports on the left are probably going to join in. We've already seen an ample amount. Something tells me, it's just the beginning.

(14,255 posts)Out of curiosity, yesterday, I asked him what he thought of Bill Clinton - he just said "hehe heh heh - what was he thinking?".
Yes, there will be lies all around, but I don't think the younger voters will listen to them, really - like I have said elsewhere, they look stuff up, and are swayed by issues, not personality, age, or gender. They look stuff up, they don't see the campaign ads. Should be interesting.

And, that's a fair question for those of us out here in the Dem Party who don't want to live through years of rehashed scandals...always wondering what is going to come up next.
With Obama as President we've gotten a reprieve from the Repub Scandals over Sexual Acts. But, with Bill and Hillary it's worrisome that we will have to got through the Repub RW starting this all up again.
I think that it's a fair question for opponents on the Left and Right to ask about how this will all play out. IMHO.
