And name-dropping..

NEW YORK --
Hillary Clinton was giving a spirited defense of her campaign proposals and her lead in the Democratic primaries when she was disrupted by a group of Bernie Sanders supporters ahead of her home state's primary.

A few minutes into Clinton's remarks on the campus of Purchase College, about 20 Sanders supporters shouted, "If she wins, we lose," and began walking out.

"The Bernie people came to say that," she said. "We're very sorry you're leaving."
