She had a great weak last week as Kevin McCarthy cut his own party's Super PAC they call the Benghazi Committee.

She has also been able to take real leadership on issues like gun control and the new voter suppression laws in Alabama where after requiring onerous voter ids they are shutting down the DMVs in black communities where you can actually get the ids.
And with the phony Emailgate scandal sidelined after McCarthy's revelations, her issues are actually breaking through to the media narrative.
Yet MSNBC's Tamron Hall this morning on NewsNation had the most laughingly cherrypicked narrative yet of the election.
She tried to frame things as if Sanders has now taken over the lead nationally. Of course this is false what she did cite was:
1. She made a big deal out of the Bernie 'is now leading Hillary in head to head against the Republican candidates in Iowa, and NH.'
Wow. That little word 'now' is a great example of what is called weasel words. Bernie has been leading for sometime in NH-not surprising as it's right next door to Vermont and like Vermont has few minority voters.
What Hall didn't mention is that this same Wall Street Journal poll actually shows her leading Bernie in Iowa again.
2. She goes on and on about 20,000 people seeing him speak over the weekend. Yes but this is hardly new. He's been getting huge crowds-as has Trump.
Crowd size is not a reliable gauge of predicting elections to say the least.
This is why while the facts Ms. Hall site are all accurate, I think this is also clearly a very dishonest bit-she even compounded it by adding an uncorroborated anecdote of a Hillary supporter she spoke to this morning that was speechless about how well Bernie is doing.
She topped it off by having a 'George W. Bush adviser' come in and comment on her cherrpicked narrative that Hillary is flailing.
I don't know why this phantom Hillary supporter didn't' speak-assuming they exist at all-but if they felt like speaking they would cite three new polls that show Hillary consolidating and even padding her lead.
"Despite the ongoing narrative in the mainstream media that Hillary Clinton’s lead in the democratic party primary is “in trouble” or that rival Bernie Sanders is “surging” or that Joe Biden may have to enter the race because Clinton is in freefall, three major new national polls released within the past few days all paint a different picture entirely: not only is Hillary Clinton’s lead still in blowout territory, it’s now growing again."
"The USA Today poll has Hillary Clinton at 41% and Bernie Sanders at 23% nationwide. The Pew Research poll has Hillary at 45% and Bernie at 24% nationwide. The Investors Business Daily poll has Hillary at 42% and Bernie at 18% nationwide (all three polls include Joe Biden, and he’s in third place in each). That’s a gap of eighteen, twenty-one, and twenty-four points between Hillary and Bernie, respectively, placing them within the margin of error of each other. It comes out to an average lead for Hillary Clinton of 21%, giving her a nearly two-to-one margin over Bernie Sanders, which is a five point increase over the 16% which Clinton had been averaging over the past month. While other polls will weigh in as October goes on, the trend for now is clear: Hillary is rising again in the national polls."

The Emailgate scandal itself is now in trouble as the Benghaz investigation itself needs to be investigated-with it's copious leaks to the media despite pledging no leads.
It's becoming obvious Biden isn't running despite the media's attempts to deny reality.

The dirty little secret is that what drop Hillary has had wasn't about Bernie but Biden. As it becomes clearer he's not running her numbers will go back to the levels they were before the Biden obsession started.
So the media is now working double and triple time to create the false picture they've been desperate to give.
