Some Hillary Clinton Supporters In South Carolina Are Starting To Get Nervous

[Purveyor]

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- As Hillary Rodham Clinton struggles to contain the uproar over her use of a private e-mail account while secretary of state, the atmosphere facing her top political advisor at a friendly event Wednesday in this early primary state showed growing anxiety among Democrats.

John Podesta, Clinton’s top campaign official, faced a number of sharp questions from core supporters about their front-runner at a senior center here: When would she make a final decision about the Keystone XL Pipeline? Would she truly take on Wall Street and big money? When would she roll out a comprehensive plan for Social Security?

The e-mail controversy also came up as Joyce Knott -- who said she is "100 percent" in Hillary’s camp -- worried that the campaign would be drowned out by "all the negative media."

Podesta promised a more robust response from Clinton surrogates to crowd of about 80. "We’re going to get more voices out there," he said, calling the attacks on Clinton partisan.

After the event, asked by a reporter if Clinton regrets her use of a private server, Podesta laughed. "Wouldn’t you?" he said.

1. Are they the same ones, that were said to be wealthy supporters, from last week that "got nervous"?

What about the other 49 states, what is the starting-to-get nervous meter showing?

2. Could be. There is plenty of 'nervousness' to go around me thinks.nt

5. I hate to state the facts,

but her national and state polls have showed her decreasing when it comes to support and increasing when it comes to viewing her unfavorably & untrustworthy. You may be able to point to a poll that reads differently--but, statistical trend is in plain sight.

I think this is bad news for the Democratic Party and nomination as a whole.

6. Of course you are here to be so Concerned as to spread "bad news" about Clinton, new poser. Funny stuff!

[Bobbie Jo]

7. +1

Seems we have an influx of those.

Go figure...

8. Actually what the new poster said IS true. Her negatives are trending up, her positive going down

I dare say the DNC wishes the primary was tomorrow instead of months away. If her numbers continue on their current trajectory then she will lose the nomination.

9. Lol, of course you use an

immature tactic. Long time reader here, and I know when people don't have a viable rebuttal to the issue(s) users they attack the poster personally.

Please do everyone a favor--stop acting like a child and engage in informative, logical discussions.

[Fred Sanders]

11. Yeah, like your 6th post, "long time reader", was so "informative"....you first!

[jkbRN]

14. Are you done yet?

If so, please stop making yourself look ridiculous.

12. You're right, they love 'em.

Welcome for real!

3. I just did the crossword at the Washington Post and one of their front page items was that the BLM

people will get no satisfaction from Dems and should just stick with repubs. I had to laugh at that one too. Nervous? I think not..

4. "a more robust response from Clinton surrogates" is just what she DOESN"T need

Sending that idiot Lanny Davis around to all the pundit shows to whine that all those who are concerned about the emails are part of the VRWC isn't going to help.

I dont support her and I actually hope she does this. If the surrogates she's used in the past are still around she's just digging herself into a deeper hole.

13. I think we need to see a little Weiner again.

10. since when is 80 a crowd?
