Hillary in Trouble

No matter how they put a happy face on it, the ground is falling out from under the Queen.
A poll released Friday shows Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders in a virtual tie nationwide in the Democratic race, representing a major slide down in support for the former secretary of state from a poll less than seven weeks ago.

The results come hours after a one-on-one debate in New Hampshire between the two Democratic candidates.

The new Quinnipiac University National poll (pdf) shows Clinton at 44 percent while Sanders is at 42 percent. The survey of over 480 Democrats has a margin of error of +/- 4.5 percentage points, making it a neck-and-neck race.

"Democrats nationwide are feeling the Bern as Sen. Bernie Sanders closes a 31-point gap to tie Secretary Hillary Clinton," said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.

The new poll also shows that Sanders would do better than Clinton in match-ups against all the Republican candidates.

Somebody tell Bernie to stay out of private planes.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
