He would bring up the money federal agents paid Pitts back then and would pronounce the government's main witness "bought and sold."

"I'm someone who knows health care, education and business creation," he says. "Been there, done that." Says Ted Arrington, professor of political science at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte: "Sanders' ads hit all the right chords.
