Clinton Campaign Manager Claims Sanders Campaign Lying About Crowd Size

[SecularMotion]

[silvershadow]

1. So then a Clinton surrogate lied. nt

[northernsouthern]

2. His look on his face.

What is with these people, they just look so full of sh@t from the second they get on screen, maybe their smiles all read as nervous?

[questionseverything]

3. this is part of the overflow...start counting rob

[tomm2thumbs]

22. lol - don't confuse me with pictures, videos or facts

it will only cause me to meltdown like Marco Rubio-bots

[kennetha]

4. Park Service Estimates Crowd as small as 1/3 of what Sanders is claiming

God, that campaign just lies and exaggerates as a matter of course.

[longship]

5. Look at post #3 and then comment about lies. nt

[shakedown1970]

8. Examples? Links? Troll?

[questionseverything]

10. why don't you post the link to the park service saying that?

[navarth]

19. yeah and post Hillary's transcripts while you're at it

[longship]

6. In other words, Clinton campaign making shit up again.

I won't call her a corporate whore because that would be wrong.

However, my number one issue this year is Citizens United. There is a stark difference on this issue between the two Democratic candidates. Just look at Hillary Clinton's donor list and one knows that she will likely not oppose Citizens United. That's where she gets her honey from.

Hillary Clinton has sold her soul to the devil.

There. That's better than calling her a whore.

7. We Know Who the Liars Are and It's Not Sanders Campaign

You want to see how bad the media is shilling for Hillary. Look at the headline on this AP piece and then watch that video again. Do you see 2 HUGE rallies? Yeah, me neither. This example is exactly what we see on DU with the Hillary supporters. They post OBVIOUS lies and expect everyone to believe them.

Clinton and Sanders both staged huge New York rallies on the same night

Sanders' campaign said his rally in Manhattan's Washington Square Park brought out 27,000 people, one of the largest gatherings in support of the 74-year-old democratic socialist who has galvanized Democrats and independents alike with his calls for reforms to corporate America and remedies for income inequality.

Clinton attracted a smaller but still enthusiastic crowd of 1,300 people at a Bronx community center, where she made no mention of Sanders but focused instead on Republican rivals Donald Trump and Ted Cruz

21. "Clinton attracted a smaller but still enthusiastic crowd..."

Yeah, the media is totally unbiased.

9. The Clinton campaign's strategy is nauseatingly predictable ...

... and suspiciously familiar:


Go after Bernie's strengths.

The fact that he is participating in a Vatican seminar is a big deal and something to be proud of.
Yet the Clinton surrogates shat all over it by questioning his invitation and how he was going to get there.

An even bigger deal is the mammoth crowds that Sanders seems to draw wherever he goes.
No wonder the Clinton lieutenants want to take a symbolic dump on Bernie's ability to energize and inspire tens of thousands each time he holds a rally. Their candidate speaks to anemic clusters of supporters or to fat cats who pay hundreds of thousands for the dubious privilege of gaining a seat at her exclusive, invitation-only table.

Boy, are they going to have buyers remorse in November.

11. Another lie

From the Artful Smear (Clinton) campaign.
Actually two lies. The second one is from CNN claiming Clinton has 1790 delegates (a half lie counting super delegates who have not yet voted).

[litlbilly]

12. wow, these shills just need to be slapped.

13. Top Clinton Ally Compares Bernie Sanders Supporters to Nazis....

14. the Clinton campaign must be relying on disgruntled Repugs to get HRC elected.

[oldandhappy]

15. clinton is nasty

She feels victorious now -- wonder how she will feel when Cruz tucks into her. He is a really mean on. Bernie has been a gentleman.

[INdemo]

16. Well they must have gotten the results from a Clinton internal poll for

New York and they are losing..so they ratchet up the attacks..Typical Karl Rove Republican tactics but should we expect anything different? She has 3 right wing nuts as advisers and possibly Karl Rove himself working back in the shadows.....

[Thespian2]

17. The Clintons, all of them,

are as dangerous as a room full of rattlesnakes...cross them...and they retaliate, big time...Lying is just second nature to the whole bunch...

[Enthusiast]

18. No lie is too large or too small.

20. I responded to another post like this posted by the same DUer explaining that when Bernie

held a rally last summer in Los Angeles, the attendance tally was quite accurate.

I know because I attended and they signed everyone in. We signed our names as I recall.

Did anyone on DU who attended the rally in Washington Square also sign in? The Sanders campaign is pretty careful about counting people. At the very least they will have an accurate rough count if their procedures in LA are the model they use.
