3. Jeez her campaign was denying there was a shake-up going on.

...truth?

8. When Sanders takes on senior staff, is that a signal his campaign's in flames?

No one was fired, one experienced senior staffer acquired, so no shake up.

4. Things like this should put to bed

the cheerleading that goes on here and the notion that "all is ok" and that now that the South is coming up it's all over

7. SC looks pretty good for Hillary

...and NC, as well.

9. From where we all sit, yes

But you don't start shaking up the staff if you are confident in what you have been doing. I do get what you mean though. I think he will tighten the margin by the 27th though.
