Dick Morris: If Hillary loses

Bernie Sanders

By Dick Morris – 01/19/16 04:56 PM EST

The contrast between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton, startlingly evident in their debate Sunday night, could not be clearer. While devotees of the establishment can tell themselves that Clinton held her own, it is clear she did not.

Sanders had all the passion, anger, force and emotion on his side, and the best Clinton could do was to try to keep it in the park as her rival hit ball after ball. Since primaries are about motivation in getting out the vote, the Vermont senator has it all over Clinton.

So what happens if she:

(a) loses Iowa;
(b) loses New Hampshire;
(c) falls behind Sanders in the national polls and Donald Trump or Ted Cruz in the head-to-heads?

The Democratic howls of concern will be deafening. “She’s blowing it again,” will be the least of what they will say. Democrats will feel trapped with a candidate who is showing before their eyes that she cannot even win a primary, much less a general election.

  1. Sanders is a sweet idealistic elderly fellow. Although not perfect, I trust Clinton more to know what is possible.

    I trust Trump least, although he is an entertaining guy and a great business man. We have serious problems and we need experience I think.

  2. 5:38
    Seriously?
    No wonder this country is in trouble…

  3. 5:38 — yes.

  4. wow… I expect “insights” like 5:38s from ill informed 1st time voters. Lets hope that is the case with 5:38. If not, then we are in a heap more trouble than I know we are already in.
