And what did Gutierrez say? MineralMan Jun 2015 #2

here cali Jun 2015 #3

Thank you. MineralMan Jun 2015 #5

He's not sure if Bernie likes immigrants. MohRokTah Jun 2015 #4

He flat out attacked Sanders in a thoroughly ugly and dishonest way. cali Jun 2015 #7

Did you even read what he said. MohRokTah Jun 2015 #25

yeah questioning whether Bernie likes minorities and immigrant- and immigrants cali Jun 2015 #27

It most certainly wasn't an attack. MohRokTah Jun 2015 #47

pitiful defense of smearing. cali Jun 2015 #51

Some of Bernie's supporters... quickesst Jun 2015 #92

It was a smear and an attack. Can't fool us. Enthusiast Jun 2015 #114

If it means smearing good 840high Jun 2015 #116

It was a clear attack. Enthusiast Jun 2015 #112

if he has nothing for immigrants, he has nothing for his own father. roguevalley Jun 2015 #194

No, he's not sure if...uh...what's his name...Sanders likes immigrants jeff47 Jun 2015 #11

that anyone would compare Bernie asking Hillary to clarify her position cali Jun 2015 #15

it speaks volumes.. frylock Jun 2015 #39

Personally I hope the Clinton surrogates continue to do this davidpdx Jun 2015 #180

And the usual suspects are here to tell us how wrong we are. Enthusiast Jun 2015 #117

Yes, because implying one's opponent is a bigot is exactly the same as asking one's opponent to smokey nj Jun 2015 #14

disgusting cali Jun 2015 #28

Disgusting is all they have and I honestly think this tactic is going to backfire. smokey nj Jun 2015 #32

Could not agree more MissDeeds Jun 2015 #137

Just because you're not paying attention to Bernie, doesn't mean Exilednight Jun 2015 #16

This is not a tit for tat. Sanders wanting to know Hillary's stand on TPP is a legitimate question. SaranchaIsWaiting Jun 2015 #29

Trying to nail down a position on a trade agreement vs implying Sanders doesn't like immigrants.. frylock Jun 2015 #38

Yeah, same thing. Enthusiast Jun 2015 #122

Perhaps Bernie would elaborate on his stance in regards to immigration, if he A Simple Game Jun 2015 #104

are you suggesting he is losing control of his message? He has relinqueshed it to the media? DrDan Jun 2015 #168

No I am not suggesting Bernie has lost control. I am suggesting that maybe the A Simple Game Jun 2015 #169

no - I cannot help you out - just reacting to your post where you claim he DrDan Jun 2015 #170

And it sounds to me that no matter what I say you will always find fault with Bernie A Simple Game Jun 2015 #171

Sanders and Clinton are both set to address Latino politicians group next week in Las Vegas... Cheese Sandwich Jun 2015 #6

not to mention that Bernie has repeatedly addressed immigrant issues cali Jun 2015 #8

Maybe his website could reflect that better BeyondGeography Jun 2015 #13

doing him a favor. what bull. And Hillary has nothing on her website- about any issue cali Jun 2015 #17

She does have the whole thing translated into Spanish though BeyondGeography Jun 2015 #20

Any idiot can run it through Google translate Jumpin Jack Flash Jun 2015 #43

Or anyone who speaks Spanish might be grateful and feel valued. bettyellen Jun 2015 #103

When every link is a donate page, the verb you want is "priced," not "valued" Scootaloo Jun 2015 #164

I honestly think O Malley's site is by far the best right now, Hill's is largely a place holder bettyellen Jun 2015 #179

For real? (I haven't looked at it.) SusanCalvin Jun 2015 #101

Not even a "This space for rent, asking price $500,000" sign? Scootaloo Jun 2015 #163

Maybe Hillary's website could reflect any issues other than her quest to be a champion. morningfog Jun 2015 #26

lol...maybe she's still making up her mind BeyondGeography Jun 2015 #30

She is mining votes not supporting issues. Wake up - this is political. jwirr Jun 2015 #94

Oh, I'm awake BeyondGeography Jun 2015 #141

Clinton on the issues.. frylock Jun 2015 #41

Just about the only content there.. Jumpin Jack Flash Jun 2015 #46

Yeah. I wouldn't think it clever to make the lesser evil too evil, ya know. djean111 Jun 2015 #10

even if those talking points weren't handed to Gutierrez, there should be some kind geek tragedy Jun 2015 #12

this seems like an intentionally planned Geraldine ferraro moment JI7 Jun 2015 #18

no doubt Gutierrez thought he was scoring some points geek tragedy Jun 2015 #22

Did you actually send this to Mook, Clinton, Podesta, etc Renew Deal Jun 2015 #19

Do you think it is impossible for truedelphi Jun 2015 #23

I actually sent it. cali Jun 2015 #31

She can't help it. The Clintons are despicable. They were in 2008 and they will be in 2016! Liberal_Stalwart71 Jun 2015 #21

Yep bravenak Jun 2015 #34

Totally agree. 840high Jun 2015 #155

Only Hillary bashing is aloud! No criticism of anyone else! DanTex Jun 2015 #24

pathetic. this is about her surrogate, not poster's on a message board cali Jun 2015 #33

Of course, Hillary put him up to this. Yay conspiracy theories! DanTex Jun 2015 #35

Hmm. That's an interesting standard. Seems to me that you're running out DanTex Jun 2015 #52

that's the commonly accepted standard. or don't you remember 2008? cali Jun 2015 #53

If you say so. This was just a guy speaking his mind without any DanTex Jun 2015 #56

Just like Geraldine Ferraro in 2008. jeff47 Jun 2015 #61

If you think this guy was somehow being coached by the Clinton campaign then, yes, DanTex Jun 2015 #66

So Clinton's campaign is utterly incompetent? jeff47 Jun 2015 #67

First of all, Hillary's campaign hasn't even launched yet. DanTex Jun 2015 #71

Pssst...those happened in 2008. Her campaign was definitely launched. (nt) jeff47 Jun 2015 #72

I was talking about the incident in the OP, not the 2008 incidents. DanTex Jun 2015 #73

Which is why you were replying to a post about the 2008 incidents. jeff47 Jun 2015 #74

My mistake. I don't care about the 2008 incidents, seeing that it's now 2015. DanTex Jun 2015 #75

Uh...the primary reason Clinton argues for her campaign is her lengthy track record. jeff47 Jun 2015 #77

Her track record is a lot more than the 2008 campaign, you know. DanTex Jun 2015 #81

Not according to what your previous post. jeff47 Jun 2015 #93

Again, I don't care about those 2008 incidents. At all. DanTex Jun 2015 #95

Starting out by pretending not to even know his name??? Paka Jun 2015 #36

So the Clinton campaign goes negative and it already backfires on them.. big time.. Jumpin Jack Flash Jun 2015 #37

I suspect Bernie's surrogates would make the same mistake from time to time... brooklynite Jun 2015 #49

I know you're wrong. her pattern is clearly established, as is his. cali Jun 2015 #54

Excellent job showing us just how classy Clinton's fans are. jeff47 Jun 2015 #57

...something the Sanders fans mastered months ago... brooklynite Jun 2015 #68

Yes, asking for Clinton's position on the TPP is totally offensive and out-of-line. jeff47 Jun 2015 #70

You lie. Did you keep a 840high Jun 2015 #121

Didn't see Sanders fans accusing Clinton of having dual loyalties. Scootaloo Jun 2015 #166

Why do you think his comment comes from the Clinton Campaign? oberliner Jun 2015 #64

Of course it is his own opinion, but blaming Hillary is more fun for Bernie supporters. leftofcool Jun 2015 #76

He's a Clinton surrogate. I'm asking the campaign to tell surrogates cali Jun 2015 #82

I'm not defending his statement oberliner Jun 2015 #83

Maybe Bernie's campaign can tell surrogates like you to stop the smearing still_one Jun 2015 #140
