“It’s not just about who you like the most”.

Clinton, a former secretary of state, senator and first lady, clung to a narrow 45 percent to 42 percent lead over Sanders, putting the senator from Vermont in position for a potential shock win that would be a harsh blow to Clinton.
Trump, who holds a 5-point lead among Republicans in the latest Des Moines Register poll, also attacked his chief rival, Ted Cruz, who called him a “total liar” on ABC’s “This Week” on Sunday. Ted Cruz at 23 percent and Florida Sen.

“I’ve been subjected, as you know so well, to years of scrutiny and I’m still standing, talking to you in the lead here in Iowa for the caucuses and going on after that”, Clinton said, when asked if she felt she would stand a better chance than Sanders against the eventual GOP nominee in a general election match-up. Brad Anderson, a Des Moines political consultant who has backed Clinton, offered his home as a base for volunteers. “And then – just about with me – I think I get into the 90s”, said Trump.
