And THEN she said...

[warrprayer]

"I think it's time to end the very artful smear that you and your campaign have been carrying out in recent week," Clinton said after Sanders talked about getting money out of politics.



Sorry, I just can't react to this with anything but laughter.. stand up debate comedy for the 1%.

[Flying Phoenix]

1. You first.

[warrprayer]

3. No joke

You got that right.

[grasswire]

2. ..and the audience booed her!

That is the story of the night, I believe. Hillary was booed by a Democratic audience.

[warrprayer]

4. She'll look into it

I'm sure.

[Mufaddal]

26. Speaking of which

30. love it

[retrowire]

7. did they boo her or Bernie for supposedly "smearing" her? nt

[warrprayer]

8. My guess

Would be her...

[retrowire]

9. did she look appalled when they booed? nt

[warrprayer]

10. Didn't see

Was at a meeting.
Going by what I read.

[retrowire]

12. i haven't seen it either. i was

watching kung fu panda 3 and taking a break from politics for once.

[warrprayer]

14. Good for you!

I too was working on maintaining my sanity - and sobriety.

[stranger81]

18. I thought she looked frightened.

Frantic. The proverbial deer in the headlights.

[JDPriestly]

20. Yes. She seemed out of control. Very angry.

She lost it. She just lost it.

It must be tough. Remember just about every vote that Sanders now has was "taken" from Hillary. Her polls were really high when this primary started out, and now she is neck and neck. She will do well in some states, but Bernie has hit the issues that are troubling Americans. She is just on the wrong side of history and on top of that, she has a terrible temper which we are starting to see.

This is not going to end well for Hillary. Even if she ultimately gets the nomination, I think there will be a lot of Democrats who will compare her to Obama who is compassionate, can take even the nastiest criticism with grace and calm, and just give Hillary a hard time.

Hillary is to sensitive and temperamental for the presidency.

[mahina]

21. That's the pissed off Mom that comes out of me when I lose control

NOT good! Not presidential, on the outside or on the inside.

[Nyan]

15. Oh no. They booed her for sure.

And for a while, too. I was surprised

[hopemountain]

16. she was also surprised. nt

[Nyan]

19. Yeah. So she decided to filibuster. nt

[starroute]

17. Here's the clip

There's a certain etiquette to booing. Boos at a debate are rare as it is -- but I've never heard a candidate saying "My opponent smeared me" and the audience booing in agreement. When boos do occur, they're always directed at a person who has just said something unacceptable. And in this case, that's Hillary.

[LiberalElite]

22. Yep.booed. -

although there was applause at the start - how many Hillarians were packed in there? What a "performance" from her. Yelling over Bernie, won't let him get a word in edgewise. Way to go Your Majesty. She's outta control.

[Mufaddal]

25. They booed her.

Right on cue after Bernie started shaking his head and saying, "oooh" disapprovingly. I was actually surprised/impressed.

[mikehiggins]

31. They booed her for her artful, political lie. When we complain about Rovian tactics we

have in mind the attacks on a candidate's strongest points. Bernie's is sincerity and honest. That is what HRC was attacking, and especially after her surrogates have spend weeks trying to maul him.

And that's what got her booed. Even the commentators didn't believe it, though they "loved" the fireworks.

[Duckhunter935]

32. they clearly booed

Her when Bernie called her out on it

[Nyan]

5. So if Bernie quotes what Hillary said, that's a smear?

People are not allowed to quote you, Hillary?
I swear she's worse than she was in 2008.

[warrprayer]

6. How DARE he

Say out loud what most of us are thinking - on the teevee yet?

[mhatrw]

11. She thought playing artful victim would make for an artful dodge.

[warrprayer]

13. In complete honesty

I really don't think it is at all funny.
I find it frightening that my party is so infiltrated by corporate control.

[TBF]

23. And then when asked if she'll release text of her speeches -

she got it under control, forced out "I'll look into it" and artfully changed the subject.

Dishonest, lying politician. The only time she looked at all genuine was when they talked about the water in Flint.

[ladyVet]

24. They were definitely booing her. She was surprised, but managed to not lose it too much.

She kept doubling down, telling Bernie if he had something to say to her, just say it. But every time he opened his mouth, she talked over him.

[leftcoastmountains]

27. Someone came up with that planted line for her.

[EdwardBernays]

28. And even more hilarious Clinton quote

"If you don’t start out trying to get universal health care, we know--and our members of Congress know--you’ll never get there. If a Democrat doesn’t stand for universal health care that includes every single American, you can see the consequences of what that will mean. It is imperative that we have plans, as both John and I do, that from the very beginning say, “You know what? Everybody has got to be covered.”

- Hillary Clinton 2008

[EmperorHasNoClothes]

29. She thought she could go Roveian

and use one of Bernie's strengths (his refusal to personally attack her) against him. We see how that worked out for her. Hopefully she learned her lesson.
