Even though Hillary Clinton’s recent win in New York went a long way towards knocking Bernie Sanders out of the race the Vermont Socialist is still holding on. “But Bernie Sanders is hurting her now. And it's gone on a long time. And it's revealed just how much Democrats don't like Hillary Clinton,” stated Charles Hurt of The Washington Times on Special Report Wednesday evening.
Hurt continued saying that Sanders is forcing Clinton to take very far left positions in order to chip away at his base. And she’s taking positions she might not be able to walk back. “And he is very much pushing her in the -- on substantive issues very far to the left… She’s going to have to stick with that stuff in the general election. The stuff about guns and stuff like that. This stuff is going to hurt her.”
According The Hill’s A.B. Stoddard, Sanders is doing more than making her take those positions. Stoddard argues that he is driving her poll numbers into the ground. “He has got her down nationally. She has lost a 30 point lead. It's down to 2 points in some polling. Her negativity, her disapproval, favorability ratings are absolutely awful. And getting worse with every single group.” This doesn’t spell good news of Clinton.
