Hillary Clinton is weighing a staff shakeup after Tuesday's New Hampshire primary, according to Politico.
Both Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, are unhappy with the direction of the campaign's messaging and digital operations and had been considering changing staff and strategy after the first four voting states.
But a source told Politico that the Clintons now want to consider such changes earlier. Clinton defeated Bernie Sanders by a razor-thin margin in last week's Iowa caucuses, but the latest polls show her trailing Sanders by double digits in New Hampshire, which will hold its primary Tuesday.
"The Clintons are not happy, and have been letting all of us know that," one Democratic official close to both Clintons told Politico. "The idea is that we need a more forward-looking message, for the primary — but also for the general election too. … There's no sense of panic, but there is an urgency to fix these problems right now."
Asked about the report on MSNBC's "The Rachel Maddow Show," Clinton said she's "very confident" in her campaign team.
"I have no idea what they're talking about or who they are talking to. We're going to take stock, but it's going to be the campaign that I've got. I'm very confident in the people that I have. I'm very committed to them," Clinton said.
"We're moving into a different phase of the campaign. We're moving into a more diverse electorate," she continued. "So, of course it would be malpractice not to say, 'OK, what worked? What can we do better? What do we have to do new and different that we have to pull out?' "

exploring different ways to lose?
She isn’t likeable. Neither is Jeb.
A campaign shakeup is usually the first sign of a listing campaign.
A bad campaign has nothing to do with the staff.
If the candidate’s bad, rearranging the chairs on the deck on the Titanic isn’t going to keep the ship from capsizing.
Hillary is a bad candidate. She just refuses to acknowledge it.
staff shakeup , yep that’ll help
Sandy Berger is dead and Rahm has his hands full in Chicago.
Good luck finding replacements.
Is that a Filson ?
Dems, such denial. You can shake up all the staff you want,,it’s the rotten corrupt POS candidate Clinton that’s the problem!
We’re moving into a different phase of the campaign. We’re moving into a more diverse electorate,” she continued. “So, of course it would be malpractice not to say, ‘OK, what worked? What can we do better? What do we have to do new and different that we have to pull out?
Isn’t this pretty much what she said to Vince Foster that fateful morning?
BALDERDASH She/s a tax-paid employee of the US govt on tax-paid trips around the world....but she/s allowing ONLY those who pay her big bucks for speeches to know what she observed there. The rest of us who are footing the bills be damned according to Hillary.
According to public disclosures, by giving just 12 speeches to Wall Street banks, private equity firms, and other financial corporations, Clinton made $2,935,000 from 2013 to 2015:
GRAPHIC--The Intercept.com
<><>Clinton/s most lucrative year was 2013, right after stepping down as secretary of state....whereby she co-oped taxpayers, using State Dept information that rightfully belongs to taxpayers in order to profit herself.
<><> That year, Hillary made $2.3 million for three speeches to Goldman Sachs....plus individual speeches to Wall Street players: Deutsche Bank, Morgan Stanley, Fidelity Investments, Apollo Management Holdings, UBS, Bank of America, and Golden Tree Asset Managers.
<><> The following year, she picked up $485,000 for a speech to Deutsche Bank and an address to Ameriprise.
<><>Last year, she made $150,000 from a lecture before the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce.
BILL CASHES IN The Associated Press notes that during Hillary Clinton’s time as secretary of state, Bill Clinton earned $17 million in talks to banks, insurance companies, hedge funds, real estate businesses, and other financial firms.
SUM TOTAL Altogether, the Clintons are estimated to have made over $139 million from paid speeches.
Along with a 55 gallon drum of prop wash.
But only by stealth and chicanery, two of the Clinton's favorite flavors.
She’s evasive, unlikeable, is scandal plagued, has no message and her butt has its own Zip code. So the problem must be their campaign staff...
