You know Hillary is nervous when she Bashes Bernie about the free college tuition and scrambling the facts.

Bernie was not talking about free tuition for millionaire kids and she knew that.

The prescription drug issue,the racial issue is BS coming from her campaign.

This is typical Bill Clinton hiding in the wings advice because this is Bill's style.

Hillary cannot give a speech,talk to a group without a teleprompter or notes. She has her chosen group/s and predetermined questions. What you see with Bernie Sanders is what you get.

The Pollster in this case could have included Elizabeth Warren and still had results in Hillary's favor because this is something the corporate media wanted the public to see and its a BS poll.

I would be saying the something if Bernie Sanders leaped into the lead with less than scientific results.
Question for Hillary,because no doubt here aides monitor DU...Are you this desperate that you are now trending toward these cowardly tactics?

The Bloomberg pollster said on Surveillance (on Bloomberg TV and Radio) that Biden has run before, is known therefore, and appeals across the board and that he seemed "untarnished." (My opinion: Well, he IS tarnished and these folks have forgotten...they will be reminded if he enters.)


Pollster went onto say that others have niches, ie Bernie...said that around 30% (forget the exact number, I think a bit higher) do not know enough about Sanders to have any opinion of him....

This is straight from the pollster without any spin from anyone...

The big story is on a state by state level. What happens in Iowa and NH will be magnified beyond their importance in the general many times over.

Whoever wins Iowa and New Hampshire changes the dynamics of the whole primary process. If Bernie wins both (and previous polling indicates that is likely to happen), then the M$M won't be able to play their stupid game of ignoring Bernie and be forced to cover his campaign. This will backfire on the "libural media". I will be watching closely.
