44. "Hillary said she was disappointed that Sanders has been going negative with his campaign."

Mon Feb 1, 2016, 10:46 AM

Feb 2016

I am glad Hillary pointed this out. Sanders said on numerous occasions he would not attack or go negative and yet his campaign his been doing so with regularity recently. Yet supposedly Sanders is the most consistent, unwavering politician in the history of ever?

For the record: If Sanders wants to go negative, I don't blame him - it's part of politics. But when you claim over and over you refuse to go negative and then you do, it hurts your authenticity.
