Larry Sabato of the University of Virginia blasted Bernie Sanders supporter Rosario Dawson on 25 April 2016 of CNN Newsroom for referencing Monica Lewinsky at a recent campaign even for the Vermont socialist: "I think it was stupid. The reason I think it was stupid is because there just aren't many votes in the Democratic primary for invoking the name of Monica Lewinsky." Anchor Carol Costello replied, "So why didn't Bernie Sanders just come out and say, you know what — Monica Lewinsky's name has no place in Democratic politics at this time?"
