Clinton staff shakeup may be coming
The Hill ^ | 02/09/2016

Posted on 02/09/2016 7:46:47 AM PST by SeekAndFind

Hillary Clinton is weighing a staff shakeup after Tuesday's New Hampshire primary, according to Politico.

Both Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, are unhappy with the direction of the campaign's messaging and digital operations and had been considering changing staff and strategy after the first four voting states.

But a source told Politico that the Clintons now want to consider such changes earlier. Clinton defeated Bernie Sanders by a razor-thin margin in last week's Iowa caucuses, but the latest polls show her trailing Sanders by double digits in New Hampshire, which will hold its primary Tuesday.

"The Clintons are not happy, and have been letting all of us know that," one Democratic official close to both Clintons told Politico. "The idea is that we need a more forward-looking message, for the primary — but also for the general election too. … There's no sense of panic, but there is an urgency to fix these problems right now."

Asked about the report on MSNBC's "The Rachel Maddow Show," Clinton said she's "very confident" in her campaign team.

"I have no idea what they're talking about or who they are talking to. We're going to take stock, but it's going to be the campaign that I've got. I'm very confident in the people that I have. I'm very committed to them," Clinton said.

"We're moving into a different phase of the campaign. We're moving into a more diverse electorate," she continued. "So, of course it would be malpractice not to say, 'OK, what worked? What can we do better? What do we have to do new and different that we have to pull out?' "

Where's Craig Livingstone now that they really need him?

Probably back here in PA holding down some cushy Democrat controlled gov job with a fat pension.

They were counting on Bill to save her bacon, but he is like the 41-year old DH who was once a slugger but now is hitting .227

Put Bill back in adult daycare center

Bill seems to be losing his charm. Perhaps his future as a nursing-home Lothario isn't certain, after all.

Thanks for posting the realities of the supposed bank hater, Hilliarily! She hates them so much, she takes Millions of $s from them.

That year, Hillary made $2.3 million for three speeches to Goldman Sachs....plus individual speeches to Wall Street players: Deutsche Bank, Morgan Stanley, Fidelity Investments, Apollo Management Holdings, UBS, Bank of America, and Golden Tree Asset Managers.

Bill Clinton complicates her problems by (1) carrying lots of harmful baggage, (2) being known as a liar, and (3) looking like he belongs in assisted living.

Hillary has a scandal problem and Bill makes it worse.

Hillary has a trust issue and Bill makes it worse.

Hillary has a youth vote issue and Bill makes it worse.

They’ll go back to the campaign psychopaths from the 90’s if they are still breathing.

Yet Bernie Sanders does not.

It is amazing how the left wing mediots have lied for and covered the Clintoons for decades.

I am in my mid 70's, and the rat voters +- 10 years love the Clintoons like their ancestors adored FDR. They refuse to see/hear any of the realities like Hill take millions from the banks she supposedly hates.

If he were bluish, he would resemble `Murphy’ on Z Nation.
(He usually points with his more-crooked left index pinger.)

Like Capone before him, Horndog Bill may have already sunk into syphilitic encephalopathy.

Bill will soon go fishing in swimming pools.
