Democrats’ Data-Gate: More Clinton Dirty Tricks?
l News has been coming out that some staffer with Bernie Sanders’ campaign improperly accessed data from the Clinton campaign (“SuckerPunching Sanders,” Editorial, Dec. 19).
And in quick action, Bernie rightfully fired the culprit.
So where is the outrage about Hillary’s private server that has been alleged to contain classified info?
And why aren’t charges being brought against Hillary for her server when she was secretary of state?
Barry Levy Hawthorne, Calif. Has everyone gone blind?
A “software glitch” lets the Sanders’ campaign see some unimportant information.
Then, the Democratic National Committee blocks Sanders from information he needs to
Then, of course, Clinton will win the nomination.win. Was this all an accident or another dirty trick by Hillary?
Democrats need to wake up . Robert Wiesman Ridgewood The Clinton campaign’s attempt to finally kneecap the floundering Sanders reminds one of the story of the “scorpion and the frog.”
To whit, a scorpion convinces a dubious frog to take him across the lake.
He then promptly stings the frog, and they both drown.
Why this madness from the scorpion? Well, because that’s what it does.
At the same time, this gratuitous attack by Hillary may have finally disturbed the sleeping socialist into action and may have also altered Hillary’s smooth “coronation” into a most uncomfortable ride for the months to come. Frank Diaz Balart

No, that’s not what you get when you deal with Democrats, and worse when dealing with Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz. I know how Sanders can repay Clinton and Wasserman Schultz: Run as an independent.

Staten Island There are pathetic aspects of the appeal to the voters by Hillary Clinton, Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley (“Dems succeed in hiding Hill again,” Dec. 20).
All three have been actively involved in government for many years. All three have helped the country incrementally, but neither Clinton nor the other two can claim to be representative of the struggling, the surviving and the successful.
Although elected officials have hit targets, they’re still far from the bullseye.
Look at the poverty rate in this country and combine that with the amount of people who are illiterate or don’t have a high school diploma and then seek out those who are to blame. Liberals, moderates and conservatives are all to blame, of course. Martin Danenberg
Islandia On the debate stage Saturday, there were three outoftouch liberal politicians.
First, we have Bernie, a raving liberal socialist who really would love to live in Europe.
Next is O’Malley, a progressive liberal former governor who was out of touch with mainstream America and was mayor of Baltimore — the city that was set on fire by protesters this year.
And last but not least, Hillary, who blames Donald Trump and Republicans — knowing it was her and President Obama’s policies that led to ISIS’s growth. Yet she blames Trump’s words for ISIS recruitment videos. JR Cummings
