Latest dirty tricks

Looks like the Hillary campaign kicked up their tricks to stall or stop Sanders' campaign

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/onpolitics/2016/03/30/hillar...

Just seems they are not seeing themselves as unassailable and are scared of Sanders catching up as much as he has. Of course as the group is one started by David Brock, can we really be surprised?

"Just one day after the Clinton campaign said we needed to change our tone, the leaders of their coordinated super PAC, which is funded by millions from Wall Street, filed baseless and frivolous complaints with the FEC,” Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver said in a statement. “Tells you all you need to know."

The Clinton campaign declined to comment on the complaints.

Addendum:

It is really bad, not sure if it has been looked at yet, but the admission of rigging shows us how far things have sunk, and that Bernie winning despite the rigging shows how badly people want him and see the need for him

The truth is she doesn’t actually “have” those superdelegates, and if Sanders wins the delegates people actually vote for, he’ll probably get the nomination. As such, the media invents a number that isn’t actually real, and definitely not set in stone, to demoralize Sanders supporters and make them think the gap is too large to overcome. It’s absolutely disgusting.

Warning, that site slows the computer down.

What SOB's...

This way they get to muddy the waters to make it look like Bernie's campaign did something wrong and to make Bernie use his resources- $$$ -to fight the complaint. Does HRC actually see this as a winning tactic? The more dirty the tricks are the more she is turning his supporters away from her.

Sadly

It may also turn voters from Bernie if they think it is true. I am guessing they will try to make it stick, and folks need to get out the word that this is utter BS and lies, and dirty pool by Brock and the Clinton campaign. 2008 all over again!

And a usual...she uses the SuperPacs to do her dirty work

so her hands look clean and she can feign innocence. I thought only the Rethugs could stoop this low.

Don't think so, fewer and fewer people like her each day as

her campaign lopes along its downward trajectory. It is do clear he is winning, despite the entrenched Establishment's psy-ops. Not working anymore.

People are waking up, they won't be fooled by Clinton and her absolutely ethics-free campaigning style. Everyone can see it now.

Still, we of course must fight these unethical attempts to scupper Bernie's bid.

I would hazard a guess

that at this point, such is the reputation of the Clinton campaign and Brock, along with the esoteric nature of the 'complaint' (BS), it will have little effect.

Coordinated super PAC?

I had to chuckle at Jeff Weaver's term "coordinated super PAC." It's not supposed to be but it must be. Remember when Hillary promised not to use her super PAC during the primaries? We were left to wonder at how she could promise to control a group that she is not allowed to coordinate with.

Correct the Record (One of Hillary's SuperPACs) coordinates

This is one of the ones David Brock runs. Here's the press release from when it was broken off of American Bridge: http://correctrecord.org/correct-the-record-launches-as-new-pro-clinton-...

Here's the money shot:

Correct The Record, though a SuperPac, will not be engaged in paid media and thus will be allowed to coordinate with campaigns and Party Committees.

Submitted by ppnortney on Wed, 03/30/2016 - 7:32pm

My understanding

is that neither of their names got on the ballot. But someone has challenged Bernie's name, so whether that takes a different "fix" than Hillary's, I don't know.

Knowing Hillary's style, the complaint is probably...

See, we found an individual who's willing to swear he gave multiple times.

Their affiliation with our campaign is completely coincidental to the fact that Bernie broke the law in accepting our money. Which he totally did, and we have a campaign staffer that the DNC put into his campaign who will provide documents that prove it.

Of course, He can't just fire the staffer, he must take full responsibility NOW and quit the race because of this.

And we will repeat this lie as many times as necessary in the MSM.

It should, yet her supporters don't care

They only care that she wins because " She's the most honest person" or some other shit stated in a diary on TOP.
Good lord, just reading the comments in any pro Hillary diaries is so damned nauseating.

In that diary, the person again claims that Obama has ended the two wars and hasn't started any new ones.
Seriously, how can so many intelligent people be so dense?
The war in Afghanistan will continue after Obama leaves office. There are troops back in Iraq.
Obama helped destroy both Libya and Syria and is using drones in at least 7 countries.
And not one person commented about how the person got that part wrong.
Some Bernie supporters tried to tell the truth about Hillary and were shot down as usual.
And now this!
How the hell she thinks people are going to vote for her when she plays this dirty is mind boggling.
