in the democratic party? >> there are a lot of socialists out there. as nancy pelosi and hillary clinton couldn't define what a socialist is. i say it's a liberal democrat that votes in the congressvery day. i think the amazing thing in that statistic, there was a 60-point gap between voters under 35. sanders won that 8 84-14. that's way more than obama did. you look at the audience and they are a bunch of old people. i'm an old person so i can say that. hillary's support was older people. the young people were basically with sanders. that's not a good thing more any democrat long term. lou: i want to go back to the socialist. we have heard the democratic national committee chair unable or unwilling to define the difference between a democrat and socialist. we are looking at polls where many democrats define themselves as socialists. we are looking at a sea change within the party. it's no longer a pejorative to identify as a socialist. it looks like a clash between -- i won't decide this early who will be facing on. but it looks like it's going to be between a reasonably conservative republican and a very liberal democrat know matter whether it's hillary clinton or bernie sander

in that town hall. the democratic socialist asked with congress? >> it is not acrid to say it's my way or the highway. where we can, we work with our republican friends. >> reporter: clinton put on the spot, too. >> did you have to be paid $675,000? >> well, i don't know. that's what they offered, so -- reporter: the once presumed front-runner, tonight, still trailing in the polls here. voweer in vulnerable and showing it. >> everybody knows i have lived 25 or so years, and so, i've had to be in public, dealing with some very difficult issues. so, regardless of how hard the days are, how difficult the decisions are, be grateful. >> the town hall last night, the debate tonight. cecilia with us live in new hampshire. d cecilia, news tonight about the clinton campaign jumping on >> reporter: yeah, david. the state department now says colin poul and staffers for condoleezza rice, like hillary clinton, had information stored on private e-mail accounts that was later deemed classified. tonight, the clinton camp saying they want her e-mails made public, david, so people can see exactly what's in them. >> all

besides that, for 25 years, he's been more comfortable in congress identifying himself as a socialist and a democrat. and frankly, railing on these issues and hasn't really moved the needle. the question is, who can get things done for these progressive values. i believe that's hillary clinton. >> let me push that point just a little bit on the foreign policy issue. what senator sanders argue is he may not have experience as secretary of state, he may not have done foreign policy, punched his ticket in terms of foreign policy -- holding public office, but he was right on the important issue of the iraq war. hillary clinton was wrong. he would argue. and a lot of people would argue in terms of the vote. she herself say she would wrong on that vote. the democratic nominee may be running against an anti-iraq war republican. if the republicans pick donald trump. isn't that still sort of a litmus test issue in which bernie sanders was right and she was wrong? >> i think most americans are going to want a foreign policy that has more depth to it than i was right about the iraq war vote. and that seems to

in office. the ability to get through congress is a whole other matter. like it or not and maybe bernie is a democratic socialist >> socialist. we do have a capitalist society and you need banks and capitalist society to function and need them to generate sufficient returns in order to attract private capital and have them buy the equity. they don't -- there's no ability to come up with a new financial system no matter what the sound bites might tell us on the campaign trail. >> all right, guys, thank you. >> fred canon of kbw, interesting to see such views. in terms of markets today we're looking at close to session lows at some point. take a look at the momentum stocks really losing ground, technology one of the worst performers today. tonight on "fast money", jp morgan's head he have derivative strategy and says there are bubbles brewing within the tech sector. you'll want to hear what he says where the bubbles are. >> still, even with the sell-off. >> okay. looks good. >> thanks very much for watching "power lunch". >> "closing bell" starts right now. >> hi, everybody, welcome to "closing bell" i'm kelly eva
