Wow. The Hillary attack threads are multiplying. I wonder why. [View all]

Oh, here's why:

Her lead is going back up to 31 points, and 23.5 point in the poll of polls.

Hillary Clinton has followed a successful debate performance by rebounding in the contest for the Democratic presidential nomination in a new ABC News/Washington Post poll, regaining ground against Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden alike.

With anticipation surrounding Biden at a peak, Clinton has 54 percent support in interviews Thursday through Sunday, compared with Sanders’ 23 percent and Biden’s 16 percent. That’s 12 percentage points better for Clinton than her position a month ago, bringing her halfway back to her level of support in the spring and summer, before her September stumble.

Folks, she's winning because she's running a great campaign, and the Democratic party supports her.
