Clinton aide: Sanders needs to change 'tone' if he wants NY debate
[THEHILL] A top aide to Hillary Clinton
... sometimes described as America's Blond Eminence and at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another Daniel Webster ...
's campaign on Monday dodged questions about setting up a debate with Bernie Sanders
...The only openly Socialist member of the U.S. Senate. Sanders was Representative-for-Life from Vermont until moving to the Senate for the rest of his life in 2006, assuming the seat vacated by Jim Jeffords...
in New York, saying it depends on the senator's "tone."
The Clintonistas do seem to be a tad desperate these days, do they not?
"This is a man who said he'd never run a negative ad ever. He's now running them. They're planning to run more," Joel Benenson, Clinton's chief strategist, said on CNN. "Let's see the tone of the campaign he wants to run before we get to any other questions."

After winning a trio of states over the weekend, Sanders on Sunday called for a debate in New York ahead of that state's April 19 primary. The Vermont senator is looking to cut into Clinton's delegate lead and says he has the "momentum" heading into the latter half of the race.

The pair faced off in a Miami debate earlier this month, and a Sanders campaign letter on Sunday said the two campaigns had agreed to a Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, debate in May but had not agreed to terms on a debate in April, according to The New York Times
...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize...
"What's the risk?" CNN's Kate Bolduan asked Monday, pressing multiple times about agreeing to a debate in New York.

"There's no risk. She's done very well in the debates," Benenson responded.

"Sen. Sanders doesn't get to decide when we debate, particularly when he's running a very negative campaign against us," he continued.

"Let's see if he goes back to the kind of tone he said he was going to set early on. If he does that, then we'll talk about debates," Benenson added.

#2  her Coronation seems delayed. If you refuse to debate because your opponent ran a critical (but true) ad, perhaps you aren't fit for the job.

Hint: she's not

#3  To paraphrase something said,
"If she can't handle Bennie, how can she handle Putin?"

Judge Napolitano To Clinton Aides: Be Afraid, Heads Will Soon Be Rolling (Video)
"The FBI is about to start dragging in Hillary Clinton's ex-aides to interview them about the email scandal and according to Judge Andrew Napolitano, they should be very afraid.
Faster please, and with greatly increased enthusiasm.
'If they go in, they're not under oath, but it's very, very dangerous, because if they mislead or lie to the FBI, that's a felony -- the equivalent to perjury -- and they can be prosecuted,' Napolitano explained this morning on Fox News.
Only if you're Scooter Libby...
'And they do not know, and their lawyers do not know, what the FBI knows about them.'

He added that the situation is 'very, very treacherous' not only for the aides but the whole Democratic party.
I doubt it will be limited to the Democratic party, but that's just a guess.
'I would think the Democrats need to know whether or not they're about to nominate somebody for president who might be a criminal defendant in a felony prosecution before November,' he said. 'They should know that.'"

Captain Oveur: Alright, give me a Hamm on five, hold the Mayo.

That's how they got Martha Stewart. But I've always wondered, if the government lies to us all the time why should they expect us to tell them the truth especially if it's not court testimony under oath?
