Bernie Sanders' Popularity Making Hillary Clinton Campaign 'Nervous'
The Clinton campaign appears to be getting nervous.
While from the start Hillary Clinton's campaign has said they were not taking anything for granted, the Democratic frontrunner didn't always act that way - for months carrying on as though her challenger, Bernie Sanders, didnt exist.
Over time, however, the 74-year-old Vermont senator has risen in the polls and gained growing support that eventually became too big for Clinton to ignore.
Now, just a few weeks until the first voting begins in Iowa and New Hampshire, her campaign is showing signs they're more anxious than ever about the outcome of these races.
The most blatant sign came earlier this week when Clinton's campaign manager Robby Mook sent a fundraising email to supporters with the subject line "nervous."

OP
Was that the "scientific' Poll that never publishes HOW it comes by those numbers?

It just shows numbers and spiffy graphs?
