Halperin: If Hillary Loses N.H., Her Chances of Being the Nominee ‘Go down Precipitously’

SCARBOROUGH: "Consistent message that is obviously drawing people to Trump, at least, the big message and to Bernie Sanders.”
HALPERIN: “Consistent message, over decades. But also, neither of them sounds like a conventional politician. They both say things that you wouldn’t hear from a politician. On Twitter, at their events, both drawing big crowds. There is no doubt, based on the last 10 public polls, she’s behind in New Hampshire. You can talk about various scenarios. We aren’t that far away from Iowa and New Hampshire — Biden gets in, Biden doesn’t get in — whatever scenarios you want. If Hillary Clinton loses the New Hampshire primary to Bernie Sanders, her chances of being the nominee go down. They may go down precipitously. And on the Republican side Trump’s pole numbers are down a little bit, right, but no one yet has challenged him. No one else has made an argument that they can get past Trump. This thing is wide open on both sides, wide open.”
