[Legal Insurrection] Clinton surrogate to demand Sanders release medical records

A top surrogate for Hillary Clinton is prepping a new attack in an intensifying and increasingly personal war against rival Bernie Sanders -- calling on the 74-year-old to release his medical records before the Iowa caucuses on Feb. 1.

Clinton defender David Brock -- founder of the Correct the Record PAC, which coordinates directly with Clinton's campaign -- is expected to hit the airwaves this weekend from Charleston, the scene of the third Democratic debate on Sunday night, and challenge Sanders to cough up a clean bill of health and doctor's note in the next 16 days, according to a Democrat familiar with his thinking who was not authorized to preview any strategy.

Clinton released her medical records, showing she is "fit to serve as President," last July. A spokeswoman for the Clinton campaign declined to comment on the strategy.

But hours later, after this report was published and Brock's planned tactics were widely criticized on Twitter, campaign chairman John Podesta distanced himself from the surrogate's attack.

Bernie Sanders is only six years older than Clinton, so it was probably wise of her campaign to disavow this tactic. The last thing she wants is people asking questions about health.
Of course she wants Medical Records discussed. It's her legitimate back door out of the race.

#3  Still waiting for Kerry's military records he said he'd release (IIRC on Matthew's program).

#2  BTW - Brock is the Hildabeasts' attack dog. This wasn't really a smart move. "Cocaine is a helluva drug"?
