Attended a campaign briefing with Robby Mook this evening

Some high points:

Hillary Clinton's popularity among Democrats continues to be at or above 70 %
- higher than Bernie Sanders
- higher than the Republican candidates' popularity among Republicans

In Iowa, the Clinton campaign has identified volunteers in every Caucus precinct

They have more organizers in Iowa than the Obama campaign had

They recognize the mistakes of the 2008 campaign and are already organizing other Caucus states (nb - Sanders is only now getting organized in Nevada

Super Tuesday will be a critical date: 23% of delegate will be picked that day, most in southern States or Texas.

An additional 32% of delegates will be selected in March, effectively ending the Primary campaign.

The Clinton campaign's goal is to spend April-June framing the General Election and going after the likely Republican candidate.
