There's extremely bad blood between the Hillary and Sanders campaigns, and the Sanders guys think the DNC fabricated a scandal by immediately going public, and possibly set them up. https://www.yahoo.com/politics/the-sanders-campaign-is-taking-their-fight-with-200738611.html https://www.yahoo.com/politics/the-sanders-campaign-is-takin... There's a big difference between Obama and Hillary, where he's pretty saturnine about attacks on him even when they get pretty crazy, and she takes things more personally and circles the wagons and counterattacks.

It's been pretty amicable but I think this incident is where they start putting iron into their gloves and spurs on their heels.

Sanders personally took a jab at Clinton during his apology, saying he wasn't sure that her campaign didn't do the same thing, but providing no evidence of that.

  How can he when the company in question and the DNC are both for Hillary. How can they know if there is evidence with out the cooperation of those entities. Hence why they are suing to gain access to those records.

    The characterization was that Sanders is "Saturnine" while Clinton is circling the wagons and counterattacking. Clinton said that she was ready to move on from this, while Sanders is looking for an investigation. Since there's nothing else to discover about the Sanders campaign, the public and repeated calls for investigation is presumably to find a smoking gun to prosecute the Clinton campaign, the DNC and the data company for collusion and worse. Seems like a counter-attack to me.

      As if the public needs a smoking gun when the Clinton is surrounded by scandals from A to Z. It amazes me that Sanders isn't going guns-a-blazing with all the Scandals and Corruption that emanates from the Clinton name brand. Why look for the needle in a haystack when you have a stack of needles sitting next to the haystack?

        Just look at how many vids exist, even from years ago, of Hillary caught in various lies: https://www.google.com/search?q=video+of+hillary+lying&rlz=1CDGOYI_enUS651US651&hl=en-US&prmd=vni&source=lnms&tbm=vid&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjxzumckvrJAhVV_mMKHdQSDFUQ_AUIBygB https://www.google.com/search?q=video+of+hillary+lying&rlz=1...

        The problem is our politicians have a nasty habit of overplaying their hand on every. single. "scandal." It starts to sound like the boy who cried wolf. Every time a new one pops up, it's hard to tell whether it is of substance or just another game of political football. It makes sense that after two decades of attacks on their name, the public is a little more hesitant to be riled up.

        All the accusations of Scandals and Corruption that emanate from the Republican echo chamber. There, ftfy.

        That's it... keep your head stuck in the sand. That'll make all the "accusations" untrue. Those wasky wepublicans. They made 40 years of lies and scandals ALL up. Every. Single. One. I mean... being a Democrat is more important that the truth. Or more important than being an American... Seriously though... At least BS seems to have the credibility that 'Liar'y doesn't. There is a reason Hillary is losing in credibility and trust-ability. Blaming Republicans is like blaming Obama's falling numbers on racism: Proof that you can't stay focused on the facts and instead have to focus on the big bad boogey man. I couldn't in good conscience ever vote for a Democrat, but I'd vote BS before 'liar'y any day of the week.

  It seems to me you could make a case for either one.
