Hillary Clinton pins ‘establishment’ label on Bernie Sanders

Bernie Sanders outperforms Hillary Clinton in head-to-head match-ups with top Republican presidential candidates in New Hampshire, a CNN/WMUR poll shows. Democrats had kinder words for Bush, who 11 percent called good-more than any other Republican candidate.

His latest ad, “America”, shows off his massive rallies and a genial image of the 74-year-old lawmaker to the tune of the famous 1968 song by Simon and Garfunkel.

The Democratic presidential candidates will get one more high-profile chance to appeal to voters exactly one week before the Iowa caucuses.

Of Democrats who caucused in 2008, Clinton leads Sanders, 55 percent to 38 percent. “And that is that for many, many people who are in the working class and who have not finished college… they increasingly think the system is rigged”.

The poll, conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center from January 13 to 18, comes on the back of a primary poll Wednesday showing the insurgent democratic socialist leading Clinton by 27 points in the Granite State. “This guy is a wack job, he’s a wacko, he’s beating Hillary Clinton!” said Donald Trump, (R) Presidential Candidate. Rubio leads Clinton 45 percent to 44 percent among New Hampshire voters, while she and Kasich are tied at 43 percent.

Clinton led in Iowa throughout the fall and into December but polls released this month have depicted a much tighter race against Sanders.

Some in the crowd did know they want to vote for Clinton.

The two remaining polls out of Iowa had Trump neck-and-neck with Ted Cruz, with the Texas Senator pulling ahead in one of the surveys.

The Democratic front-runner told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer on “The Situation Room” that Sanders’ charge that Planned Parenthood and the Human Rights Campaign support Clinton because they are all part of the establishment didn’t make sense to her. “Last, but not least, I am voting for her because I truly believe that there is nobody more qualified to run this country”. “What I’m hearing more and more is that (black voters) are now open to hearing Bernie”. But she holds a 15-point lead with women.

“Sanders organizers seem to be making some headway”, said Maryland Rep. Elijah Cummings, who says he’s likely to endorse Clinton.
