New Iowa Poll - Hillary still overwhelming favorite of Iowa Democrats - HRC ROOM POST

Iowa Democrats Stick With Hillary Clinton in Bloomberg Politics/Des Moines Register Poll

http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2015-06-01/iowa-democrats-stick-with-hillary-clinton-in-bloomberg-politics-des-moines-register-poll

Hillary Clinton remains the overwhelming favorite among Iowa Democrats looking ahead to next year's presidential caucuses, though Bernie Sanders has quickly risen as Elizabeth Warren's proxy for the anti-establishment alternative.

Clinton is the first choice for 57 percent of likely Democratic caucus-goers in a new Bloomberg Politics/Des Moines Register Iowa Poll conducted May 25-29, up a percentage point from the previous poll in January. Controversies dating from her tenure as secretary of state, from her handling of the Benghazi attacks and her use of private e-mail to the Clinton Foundation's acceptance of contributions from foreign governments, have not weakened her campaign in Iowa, though many Democrats remain concerned they could hurt her in a general election.

It also looks like the overwhelming majority are not buying into email, Benghazi, or Clinton Foundation controversy nonsense.

Hummm, she did not give up she went up. As much as they try to discredit Hillary they don't have anything to offer which takes away from her experience and record. She is not falling to the chatter which is trying to disrupt campaign by side lining her trail. I just wonder when the realization will occur to those who continues to chatter.

I wouldn't be surprised if he stalls out about where he is right now. The real base is what it is, and it's with Hillary.
