Related: About this forumTime's interview with slime merchant Brock about attacking Bernie
Way to legitimize this disgusting human being. There is no one lower or slimier in politics than Hillary's good pal. Time echoes and amplifies this asshole's lies.
If Robby Mook manages Hillary Clintons presidential campaign, former journalist David Brock rules the external Clinton machine.
He is a founder of Media Matters and Correct The Recordtwo groups that monitor and correct news reports about Clinton; and Super PACS American Bridge and Priorities USA, which work to help Democratic candidates, especially Clinton.

TIME sat down with Brock at his Nashua, N.H., on a snowy Monday afternoon to get his take on Clintons campaign. Below is an edited transcript of our interview.
All the pushback on misleading news reports that Bernie Sanders won the Latino vote (he didnt) in Nevada, trackers following Sanders catching his every gaffe like when he yelled English, only! into a mic at a Nevada event or pushing polling showing Clinton winning amongst African Americans in South Carolinathose all come from from Brock.

Q. Do you believe Bernie Sanders has ever allowed a campaign contribution to influence an official act?
A. I do know theres been some hypocrisy here. It came out over the weekendI go to the DSCC retreats myself. Ive seen Senator Sanders myself sitting on the deck of a nice hotels talking to lobbyists, talking to people from the financial sector who are there supporting the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee and theyve supported his Senate races. So I think the purity bubble here is about to burst. I think that what were seeing is politics as usual. Im not making accusations that hes done anything. I wont make those accusations in the way theyve made them against Secretary Clinton because we dont have any evidence of that.
Lets get real here and lets not having the pot calling the kettle black.
Q. Clinton pollster Joel Benenson said that Bernie Sanders is running the most negative campaign of any Democrat in primary history. Do you agree?
A. I think so.
All of these attacks on Secretary Clinton at the end of thee day are character attacks. Theyre very personal theyre totally unwarranted and its especially troubling because hes using the Republican playbook against Secretary Clinton these are exactly the kinds of attacks certainly after she wins the nomination that they will be launching, and I think its very troubling that hes using these same tactics. Its false, its wrong and its about the time that Secretary Clinton speaks up about that.

(3,623 posts)By the way, I doubt the Republicans will go after Hillary for being owned by corporations. After all, the GOP is 100% owned by corporations. They have no room to go after her on that issue. What they will go after her on is the FBI investigation, which Sanders has given her a free pass on.

(30,099 posts)It will be Trump who goes after her for WS, he does that now with Republican candidates and none of them
push back on it b/c they can't. Neither will she be able to do so, should those two be the nom winners.
He will be merciless on her, beyond what she is prepared to explain and Independents will flock to
him as a result.
Time should be embarrassed to print this piece of shit's lies.
