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, a problem that plagued her not only in the opening months of this campaign but also in her failed 2008 White House bid.
But this time the Democratic hand-wringing is balanced by something more positive: cautious optimism that she has an organization that might overcome her weaknesses.

Not so much. Bernie will do well in New Hampshire then it's over for him. More like the Republicans have hit the panic button. Looks as if the Trump flame will burn out shortly in favor of Cruz who no one can stand and even has establishment Republicans vowing to vote Hillary instead of the Cruz train wreck.
Most of Bernie's vote is an anti Clinton vote. Those people will vote GOP in the general election.
10:25 - let's hope so!
The craziness about this article, is the server situation was first brought to light last Winter. Therefore, the DNC's panic is confusing. What did they expect? That all the mindless Clintonites would just go along with the program and discount her honesty issue? If so, this shows the gross disconnect between the Committee and its constituency.
I would hope my fellow Americans would value integrity and honesty with a little more creed than sub-zero. The situation has ballooned over the days following the statement releases - especially after the infamous 22 that practically no one has clearance to read, including the investigators. It continues to grow as we hear about her deals with Clinton Foundation donors and favors at the State Dept.
The problem is, when you look at it, this is the Clinton way. It always has been. They make Joe Kennedy look like The Pope. They do their dastardly deed, smile at the camera and tell voters what they want to hear - about making statements regarding feminism and the first POTUS. They think by acting all is normal that it somehow waves this mythical wand over them, insulating them from any political fallout. However, this election cycle looks a bit different. What we saw Monday is her just barely squeezing by against a self-proclaimed Socialist. A situation she never dreamed would happen when she was 'promised' 2016.
This is an interesting thing to ponder about her situation: has it ever occurred to any of you that she purposefully screwed up her job at the State Department to get even with Obama for stealing what she perceived as her job the last eight years? Could she have pulled this little HillaryGate because she knew things like the video lies from Benghazi also makes him look like an amateur? It has been reported but unverified that a month ago, she was screaming at Obama to call the dogs off... So all is not roses in the Oval Office in regards to Clinton as the public has been led to believe.
Perhaps, just maybe the Obama DOJ will pursuit charges when the time is ripe or after she's sweat it out, trying to promote her fictional bubble to an unaccepting public, thus, leading to crushing humiliation. If that's Obama's 'plan' it would not be surprising.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see how this all shakes out, but I believe they're worried because they can't bank on Bill (due to drastic drops in his acceptable ratings amongst voters) and her criminal behavior is just to obvious and vast to merely throw off with a glib remark or deflection to others' shortcomings.
Hillary didn't win. Stupid Litards just don't know how to count.
Great. So, another machine would gain the presidency.
No, hell, no.
