Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton spoke at the University of Minnesota McNamara Alumni Center on Tuesday, December 15, 2015, in Minneapolis, Minn.
Big movement in New Hampshire
No polling wrap up today because nothing came out but the mostly garbagey official weekly release of the Ipsos/Reuters tracker (Hillary led 58-29 if it means anything to you) but we just got a release of the Franklin Pierce University Democratic primary numbers for New Hampshire this evening, and they’re pretty newsworthy.
Sanders maintains a very slim lead in the poll, but Hillary has closed the margin dramatically since their last poll.
Sanders 48
Clinton 46
O’Malley 2
Sanders tiny two point lead is down from a ten point lead from their October poll.
Without Biden in the race, Sanders actually did slightly BETTER in October, where he led 48-38 (He led 38-30-19 with Biden in the race). That means that in the past two months Clinton has gained 8 points in a Biden-free race while Sanders has been stagnant...............

Now let's do a little clean up on the original OP:
You did a good job with the bold and pictures though!!
Leave out ANY WEAKNESS in your argument, and cherrypick support for your candidate like this:

Clinton cutting into a Sanders lead in New Hampshire, and another that shows it has developed into a very close race since Clinton’s debate wins in October and her stellar performance in front of the Benghazi kangaroo committee.
Much like the national race, Sanders has been stalled after an initial surge for quite a while.

Now write an editorial comment that's illogical: Projecting from these results shows that this trend means that Hillary will win NH by a LANDSLIDE of 40% in the primary!!!
Nothing wrong with a video too:
Sometimes the unofficial rules suggest a long line of smilies:
Don't forget the bounces:
