CNN’s Gergen: Clinton’s Coal Comments Will ‘Cut and Hurt Her’

‘I think she could have presented it a very different way’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT: 
COSTELLO: "Ohio workers believe their jobs are now in Mexico or China or even Japan. With me, David Gergen and robin Kelly. Welcome both of you. So David, that comment by Clinton, I know she didn’t mean that it way but it was damaging, wasn’t it?"
GERGEN: "It was indeed. This is a very, very sore point in so many states in the — like West Virginia and Ohio and others. And I think she could have presented it a very different way. But I do think it is going to cut and hurt her. She still has about an eight point lead in Ohio according to the latest polls but after Michigan and the upset Sanders pulled there when he was 20 points back virtually on the night before nobody knows for sure which way Ohio is going to go today."
