After losing streak, Hillary starts to attack Sanders

Hillary Clinton: the pre-candidate sees New York State represented as a senator for eight years as your home


Washington - Shaken by a series of defeats, the pre-candidate Democratic for president of the United States Hillary Clinton is testing a new line of attack against his opponent, Bernie Sanders, before the primary party in the State of New York: question with forcefulness their credentials and insinuate that he lacks ability to implement his campaign promise to dismantle big banks.

Meanwhile, a new national opinion poll released on Thursday showed a nearly divided support, with 46 percent supporting Clinton and 47 percent supporting Sanders.

Among the new tactics, a super PAC --grupo collection to candidates without affiliation partidária-- supporting Hillary circulated comparisons between Sanders and the controversial Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

The two-pronged attack, less than two weeks before the primary in New York on 19 April, focused on the interview with Sanders told the New York Daily News very focused on policy proposals to be adopted by it.

Super PAC 'Correct the Record' released an overview of opinions of experts who criticized what they saw as Vermont senator gaffes in the interview, citing one that called him "almost Trumpiano".

In an email to the former first lady supporters, an aide to Clinton campaign said that "even in his favorite subject, which is dismantling the banks," Sanders was "unable to answer basic questions." The email included a complete transcript of the interview.

"If you will be a single-issue candidate, at least know your unique theme," said Brian Fallon, a spokesman for the Clinton campaign on Twitter.

"After reading the interview in the New York Daily News today, I got the feeling that someone should ask AS after each of those declarative sentences Sanders," tweeted spokesman Jesse Ferguson on Tuesday.

Sanders made the reduction of income inequality and the dismantling of banks "too big to fail" central points of his presidential platform, criticizing Clinton for having received money from banks and accused of being too close to the financial industry.

The escalation in tension between the two pre-candidates who have spent months avoiding criticizing each other openly came after Sanders win in Wisconsin on Tuesday, racking up six wins in seven last primary in the race for the Democratic nomination.

Sanders remains behind Clinton in the number of delegates needed to secure the nomination before the party convention in July in Philadelphia.

Hillary sees New York State represented as a senator for eight years as his home and the headquarters of his campaign is there.

Sanders, now a senator from Vermont, reminded voters that he was born and raised in New York.


"Look, I think I know much better state. I have a lot of recent experience," Clinton told CNN on Wednesday.
