questioning her "expressions" are "re-fighting the primaries"? This interview was published a mere three days ago, so it's topical. I'm aware that there's a certain group who want to dismiss anything less than unadulterated adulation for the Sanders' as mere political infighting, but she started this debate with her accusations against the Obama administration, and then has the gall to speculate that BS would have won, when he lost the primaries by nearly 4 mil votes? C'mon, really?
