HRC will campaign five days straight in CA beginning Thursday until primary eve

[book_worm]

NEW YORK -- Hillary Clinton has upended her campaign schedule, adding more stops in California, in an effort to prevent an embarrassing loss there to Bernie Sanders, her rival for the Democratic presidential nomination.

Clinton originally planned to campaign for two days this week in New Jersey, but at the last minute canceled an event on Thursday and will instead return to California for a five-day swing.

The schedule change comes as Sanders has barnstormed California, not leaving the state in more than a week. Meanwhile, a recent poll found the race closing significantly. Clinton's lead over Sanders had narrowed to just two points.

Details are scarce, but Clinton now plans to hold events in California from Thursday until the day before the state's June 7 primary.

1. She's still gonna to visit NJ

[FloridaBlues]

2. Drives me nutz when all the media focuses on one obscure poll

She stayed most of the time on NY as well and pundits had him "closing"the gap.
I'm sure there will be a few more polls out this week.
For him to camp out for two full weeks tells you how far behind he really is at this point.
Think she's going to jersey Tuesday and Wednesday as well. Going into the home stretch!

3. Time to close the door.

This has gone on quite long enough.

4. Sanders scorched earth policy where he rather give trump

The whitehouse than admit he lost..NO WOMAN...no candidate had to fight 2 political adversaries and the media....in the end...we will put our country first to save it from two egomaniacs...

[Her Sister]

7. She actually was fighting about 20 at the beginning of the Primaries!

She's quite strong!!

With HER!

[ucrdem]

5. She's doing great here

"Hero's welcome": San Jose ? Hillary


Democratic Presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton greets supporters as she makes a campaign appearance at Parkside Hall in San Jose, Calif., Thursday, May 26, 2016.

San Jose: Hillary Clinton bashes 'loose cannon' Trump

SAN JOSE -- Facing a tightening primary battle in California and renewed criticism over her tenure as secretary of state, Hillary Clinton received a hero's welcome Thursday from more than 1,000 supporters in downtown San Jose eager to help the likely Democratic nominee get her campaign back on track.

Clinton devoted much of her 25-minute address in Parkside Hall to blasting "loose cannon" Donald Trump, who clinched the Republican nomination Thursday, as a menace to the world and working-class Americans alike.

"People say you talk about Trump a lot ... and I'll tell you why," Clinton said. "Because what he is saying is dangerous and divisive; what he is saying is harmful to our future and our country."

Clinton took a much different tack with Bernie Sanders, whom she described as a kindred spirit who would help her defeat Trump after they battle it out in the days leading up to California's June 7 primary.

"We are on the same page," she said, noting her support of universal health coverage, making college affordable and reining in Wall Street. "We are going to be coming together as a unified Democratic Party ... because Sen. Sanders and I -- our supporters together-- have so much more in common than we do with Donald Trump."

10. Hillary is so gracious while burnie is raging @ her in the wings and on

national tv.

That's one reason why she's going to get to be the President and not him.

Mahalo, ucr~

11. Today he was taking a dump on ACA

in Oakland. I heard maybe 5 minutes of his speech and it was "how many of you pay outrageous premiums?" and "pharmaceutical companies are writing policy and ripping you off"! (paraphrasing). When I heard him here it was the same thing -- bash, bash bash Democrats, Democratic programs, the DNC and the party, sometimes by name, usually indirectly. And he's been ginning up resentment in his "yuuuge" crowds (usually about 1/50th of reported) for a year. Putting him in the mix was a really bad idea.



p.s. but yes she's going to win and it won't be long , whew!

[Cha]

12. Yeah, he's done all he can to set up a gullible chunk to hate the

Party that's getting things done and making progress in our country. Unlike burnie who's not accomplished anything but huge rallies that didn't translate into enough votes.

Thankfully there are more wise people than those who get suckered.

[Cha]

13. P.S. poor poor burnie..

15. Hey thanks Cha!

"there are more wise people than those who get suckered. " That's a comfort! Barack, Bill and Hill have three months to turn this thing around after the convention which I'm hoping will run smoothly. But I'm not counting on Bernie helping a whole lot. He's running around California knocking Hillary for all he's worth for motives I can only ascribe to revenge. Nice guy eh.

[Cha]

17. the 3 Muskateers!

I don't count on burnie to do anything but burn bridges.



We got this.. it's not for sore losers.. they've got revenge whine to make..

[ucrdem]

20. LOL, yep, like Peter Paul and Mary

[jimw81]

27. Obama's approval rating is helping Hillary

Nate Silver said when she declared if Obama's approval rating is near or above 50% it helps Hillary in primaries and general for two reasons, 1)voters like the course the country is going on and 2) It helps her bridge that gap with independents and white male vote.

[Cha]

28. Exactly my point, jim.. thank you!

[still_one]

21. What a jerk. His scorch and burn policy makes him persona non grata in my book

with the Democratic party.

I can't believe I had a favorable view of this ass when this process started.

[ucrdem]

24. delusions of grandeur I guess.

It all sounds thrilling the first time you hear him rattle off his grievances but over the years it really starts to get annoying. He's been a super-vocal "critic" of Obama on everything and called everything a failure, like the stimulus, auto bailouts and TARP, which were actually very successful. Now he's harping on the TPP which will also be hugely beneficial if it ever gets off the ground. Anyway his 15 minutes are just about up and the sooner he goes away the better.

31. It's all right, still_one. He fooled everybody, but at least we had the sense to quickly see who he

really was - a horribly bad sore-loser!

[still_one]

14. I was at that event, and she was extremely complimentry toward Sanders and his

supporters.

A lot of volunteers are going all out for Hillary this final week before the primaries.

[Cha]

18. Hillary's is so gracious and intelligent.. so proud to be supporting her in 2016, stillone~

Mahalo~

[still_one]

22. A lot of local and state representatives were there, including Gavin Newsom, mayors, council members

and community leaders. It was a good event.

Thanks Cha

[Cha]

25. Good on you that you got to go.. such history in the making!

[BlueMTexpat]

29. + a million or so! eom

[ucrdem]

19. She's been nice to him all along.

Yes, she whacked him in every debate but she did it on policy and his record and won fair and square. And now he won't let it go. Sad man.

p.s. I"m planning to do some more phone-banking this week too...

[still_one]

23. That is exactly what happened ucr

[SaschaHM]

6. Any word on where she will end June 7th?

She's going to get the nomination so she can have the victory rally pretty much anywhere.

[still_one]

16. I thought it was Los Angeles, but I could be wrong

[George II]

8. A bit of sensational wording by the Washington Post - "to prevent an embarrassing loss"? She will..

....win, that's all she needs.

Even so, before the polls close in California the last needed delegates will go to her in New Jersey.

[Basic LA]

9. Part of me wishes she'd level attack ads on Bernie.

I guess it's not prudent, but oh boy does he have it coming this final week of the campaign.

[MFM008]

26. The end of these primaries cannot come soon enough

[LenaBaby61]

30. SO agree with you....

Hillary Clinton will be able to REALLY pivot post June 14th, when there will likely be a Democratic nominee for POTUS.
