In reply to the discussion: Sanders tanked Clinton. [View all]joshcryer
(62,276 posts)Obama literally brought back the Harry and Louise ad (with none other than the original Harry and Louise) that Gingrich threw at Bill Clinton in the 90s over health care. Clinton tried to tie Obama to Tony Rezko and all the shitty politics in Illinois.
It was bad. Really bad.
But Hillary Clinton endorsed Obama 4 days after losing and went on to campaign fervently for him.
While Sanders waited 8 weeks and 3 days before as much showing a gesture, reluctantly, without any sort of pure endorsement. I feel he was surrounded by his team of people and they made him lose sight of the bigger picture.
Hillary Clinton didn't once bring up any of the plethora of dirt that exists on Sanders in any form whatsoever. While Sanders was saying she was unfit to be the President, she sat back and counted the primary votes she was handily getting in states that are being affected now the hardest by this POS president.
