What Would Hillary Do?

A recent poll showed Sanders tied with Clinton in Nevada, a striking comeback for the Vermont senator, who trailed by 23% in a late December poll.

Small nitpick here. I think you have to be somewhere and go down before it can be called a comeback. Let's call it a leap or a gain. Or a whammy.

Clinton’s campaign has tried to temper expectations that it would dominate the Nevada caucus, a shocking turnabout in a state it once considered a potential firewall against Sanders’ momentum. Iowa and New Hampshire are both more than 90% white, which has allowed Clinton to argue that Nevada – and its 25% minority population – offers a more accurate reflection of the voting bloc Democrats need to win the general election.

“We’re going to surprise a lot of people,” said Cesar Vargas, Sanders’ Latino outreach strategist. “We’re seeing amazing energy in Nevada that is really reflective of what we’re seeing across the country.

“High school students are getting active and literally dragging their families to get registered. On college campuses in Vegas and Reno we’re seeing a really organic grassroots coalition for Bernie. We are demonstrating that there is no firewall.”

Uh-oh.  She was counting on the minorities, and they seem to be slipping away.

So, what did Hillary do?

Clinton tried to shore up support in Las Vegas’s minority community at a rally on Saturday.

“Not everything is about an economic theory,” she said, echoing a new attack ad portraying Sanders as a one-issue candidate. “If we broke up the big banks tomorrow … will that end racism? Will that end sexism? Will that end discrimination against the LGBT community?

“Will that make people feel more welcoming to immigrants overnight?”

She buffered bankers!? Brilliant.

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