WASHINGTON — Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders played tug-of-war over President Obama’s heart at Thursday’s Democratic debate, with each arguing the other has been more disrespectful to the president.

Clinton lit into Sanders for his Thursday comments that President Obama hasn’t been able to work with Congress well enough, accusing him of Republican-like attacks.

“I don’t think he gets the credit he deserves,” she said. “The kind of criticism that we’ve heard from Senator Sanders about our president I expect from Republicans, I do not expect from someone running for the Democratic nomination to succeed President Obama.”

Sanders reacted like he’d been hit in the stomach, practically growling as he waited for his chance to respond. read more here
