Hillary Clinton
In reply to the discussion: Exclusive: Obama on Iowa, Clinton, Sanders and 2016 [View all]Cha
(296,848 posts)2. OMG! I love that man.. Mr President, Sir!
one thing everybody understands is that this job right here, you dont have the luxury of just focusing on one thing, a relaxed and reflective Obama told me in his most expansive discussion of the 2016 race to date.....
When I asked Obama if Clinton is facing unfair scrutiny this time around, his answer was a clipped yes and he even admitted a tinge of regret that his own campaign had been so hard on her eight years ago.
But when I asked him if Sanders reminded him of himself in 2008, he quickly shot me down: I dont think that's true.
Hell No, it's not true!
Thank you so much, sufrommich!

I've sometimes found myself on the opposite side of Krugman, but he's definitely winning me back.
