Clinton to Hecklers: I Have 2.5 Million More Votes Than Bernie Sanders

Seems that Bernie's supporters have taken to heckling Clinton during events now. You can tell by her response that she's not feeling the bern at all and it swinging back hard.

have heckled Bernie at his events? Not classy, IMO.

I also like that Hillary said this:

“The Bernie people came to say that. We’re very sorry you’re leaving,” Clinton said

“What I regret is they don’t want to listen to anyone else.”

I still believe that many Sanders supporters are as appalled by such behavior as anyone else is.

Warranted, that'll erode a bit in WI and WY...but then comes super-big NY followed by PA and MD.

We should start betting on how many millions she's ahead by June.

and let them know that Bernie trained in a Marxist kibbutz and secretly wants government takeover of all assets which he showed by visiting Daniel Ortega and Fidel Castro.

OK, I just have to say this. There are times she reminds me of my mom. Her mannerisms, the way she says things, how she move her hand. They are both about the same age, so maybe that's it, or it could be a mid-western thing-We are from Iowa. I just love it. And I don't mean that in a sexist way...I think it may be a mid-west thing. I find myself doing some of the same things...too funny.

Her sense of humour type, way of laughing. Mannerisms. Way of speaking, expressing and thinking. Also my mother is similar age!

I think this adds for me how I ignore people that criticize her style and personality. Doesn't faze me. I understand this kind of human.

I'm like you...it doesn't bother me because I recognize the mannerisms. I also think it's funny when the bernie dudes get off on the "cut it out"...man, I grew up with that. If my mom said, and she was mad, run for the hills....there was no messing around with that

My mom is so smart but did not go to college, but for some reason has this scientific logical way of thinking. And yes when I did something wrong she did not suffer fools at all! I have always described her as a person with a spine of steel. Wish I had her strength. Yet she has this almost kooky sense of humor. I find this kind of person admirable and endearing. Don't take lightly or kindly people putting her down. Guess it includes HRC for me.

my mom wasn't scientific....but man, she could sewing like a dream, which saved our family. She made my wedding and brides maid dresses. She's sweet and funny, but when I was in labor and she when she told me to stop it (I wanted to get out of bed) I was 12 years old again. Man I miss her...she's in the states and I'm in Europe...not a bunch of visiting time.

It is disrespectful. This is what comes from allowing supporters to boo her at his rallies, and looking the other way while they smear her on line with Republican lies. I suppose this is suppose to be part of the revolution.
