I have a lot of respect for Hillary Clinton. She is somebody I have known for 25 years. I am not going to be engaging in personal attacks against her. I’m not going to be engaging in personal attacks against her. She and I disagree on many issues. The American people want a serious debate about serious issues, not personal attacks.
