Clinton, Sanders, O’Malley blast Republicans at major NHDP fundraiser.

Party estimates 1,400 attended Manchester event.

'The three major Democratic candidates for president ripped Republicans to the cheers of 1,400 party faithful Sunday at the New Hampshire Democratic Party’s annual Jefferson-Jackson Dinner fundraiser.

The party expected to raise more than $250,000 at its largest annual fundraiser, which was held at the Radisson Hotel in downtown Manchester.

While Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and Martin O’Malley jockeyed for the biggest applause lines without directly criticizing each other, the overriding theme was, as expected, unity against Republicans.

And, as expected, the biggest target was Republican frontrunner Donald Trump, who was compared to Joseph McCarthy by O’Malley.

Sanders and O’Malley worked to distinguished themselves from Clinton while the former secretary of state focused squarely on the GOP.

All three candidates received raucous ovations from their supporters in the crowd.' >>>
