Dick Morris: Clinton deploys B Team
The Hill ^ | February 9,2016 | Dick Morris

Posted on 02/09/2016 3:50:09 PM PST by Hojczyk

Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign is falling apart. Bernie Sanders soared in New Hampshire and now two polls have him tying her nationally. It’s a disaster.

Now she’s called in the B Team — the cynical, paranoid and wacky twins Sidney Blumenthal and David Brock — to bail her out. And here comes the elderly, diminished and livid former President Bill Clinton to lead the duo’s frantic attacks on Sanders.

The attacks are rooted in nothing more than a list of dirty names they call the Vermont senator every day. Having found little in his record to attack, they have consulted the thesaurus to turn up ugly sounding accusations.

Sanders has a coherent, consistent and concise message: Incomes are stagnant because the economy is rigged by the top one-tenth of 1 percent that controls politics through massive campaign contributions.

Clinton has no competing message, just the charge that Sanders’s supporters are “sexist and vulgar.” Brock adds that one of Sanders’s ads was racist because it had too many white people in it.

Their strategy is laughable. After losing 84 percent of young voters in Iowa — and failing to recover them in New Hampshire — they sent in two aging fossils of feminism to insult and threaten young women. save the bewildered former secretary of State, who cannot understand why a funny thing is happening on her way to her coronation. Voters looked at her and ran screaming.

I was hoping for more “Nuclear North Korea Madeline” and an appearance of “Burn all the lil chilrens Reno”.

I thought Hillary was the “B”.

Now that the Dick Moron has chimed in, just watch Hillary destroy Sanders.

[Bill] ranted about Sanders's "hypocrisy" in condemning his wife's paid speeches. Sanders, too, has given paid speeches, Bill Clinton claimed.

He's got a point. In 2013, for example, Sanders made all of $1,500, which he donated to charity as required by federal law. In 2014, he raked in $1,850 for paid speeches.

By contrast, Clinton made, and kept, over $21 million during the same time period.

Sanders was only reimbursed for coach class airfare, while Clinton demanded private jets.

Devastating!

Not a fan of Morris, but boy I like his stories when he is sticking it right in Hillary’s back.

From the cattle futures on, this woman has skirted the law and gotten away with it.

If only one person would come forward and burn her on Vince Foster and Jerry Parks.

I always liked Morris. He's fun and interesting to look at, listen to and read.

Wow...now that he's re-surfacing, he's gonna come in handy if Hillary is the Dim standard-bearer. He'll be the most cuddly but toxic pointed thorn in her side for the duration of the race to the White House.

I'm drooling already!

And Romney will win in a landslide of unprecedented proportions.

Morris is wrong about a lot of things, but he’s not wrong when playing gossip columnist about the Clintons. I was amused by his description of David Brock as destroying the Clintons when he was a conservative by exposing Bill’s sex scandals, and now he is destroying the Clintons again as Hillary’s incompetent advisor.

If you have a political problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the B Team.

This is about as much fun as watching the Bolsheviks and Mensheviks duke it out.

Bernie better watch his step or he may end up wearing an ice pick like a hat rack. The Klinton Krime Family Charity doesn't mess around.

Isn’t Sid Vicious a half-a-step ahead of the FBI amid ServerGate? He needs to be careful how he answers questions on the campaign trail on that subject.
