Sanders campaign may ‘re-evaluate’ attacks on Clinton after Tuesday

Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders’s top adviser said on Saturday that the campaign would consider dialing down its criticism of front-runner Hillary Clinton depending on the outcome of the primaries on April 26.

{mosads}Tad Devine was asked in an interview with NPR if Sanders would ever consider toning down his harsh attacks on Clinton.

“If we think we’ve made enough progress, then we’ll keep on the path that we’re on,” he said, referring to Tuesday’s string of primaries. “If we think we have to, you know, take a different way or re-evaluate, you know, we’ll do it then.”

Devine added, “Right now, we think the best path beyond is the one we laid out months ago.”

Five states head to the polls on Tuesday, and Sanders has promised a strong showing this week to boost his lagging delegate count.

While Sanders has continued to promise taking his campaign to the end, he has acknowledged the difficult path ahead. He said this week he would have to look closely at Clinton’s platform before considering campaigning for her if he concedes.
