Clinton's Narrow Win Sparks Nervousness Among Supporters

MANCHESTER, New Hampshire - Hillary Clinton emerged from Iowa with a razor-thin victory over Bernie Sanders - and a new round of nervous second-guessing from supporters.

Topping the list of concerns is Clinton's staggering disadvantage with young voters, a crucial Democratic constituency that overwhelmingly sided with Sanders. Clinton supporters are also worried that the campaign is still struggling with a muddled message.

Some Democrats warned the candidate against overcorrecting.

"Swerving off her lane, changing messages or tone would be a mistake," said Dan Pfeiffer, a longtime Obama adviser. He pointed to March 15 contests in Florida, Ohio and Illinois as a test of whether Clinton "will either put this away, or sign up for a 2008-style slog."

It's not her "muddled message". She's a liar and a traitor.

The “young” having been provided for by their parents most of their lives are susceptible to Sanders free lunch nonsense

"Topping the list of concerns is Clinton's staggering disadvantage with young voters"

This is a bigger deal than most 1990s-scarred Republicans realize. To those who weren't around back then, Hillary is a schreechy, repulsive old lesbian in diapers and a housecoat with a creepy old horndog of a husband looking for what he can't get at home. And they're crooks. Why are we still afraid of her?

If she is nominated, I think many young voters stay home.

And she won six out of six coin flips. Those two-headed coins are going to be on display at the Clinton liebrary and massage parlor soon.
