(With over two months to go to Iowa!)

Snip: Voting-wise, after its summertime churn, the race for the GOP nomination is in a lull; all the debates, discussion and occasional invective of the past month have changed almost nothing. But there’s some Democratic movement -- a 9-point advance for Bernie Sanders with Joe Biden off the books, and big shifts in some groups.

At 60-34 percent, Hillary Clinton is 26 percentage points ahead of Sanders, down from 39 points in October. He has gained significantly among registered Democrats and Democrat leaners under age 50, runs closely with Clinton among liberals and has closed the margin, to some extent, among nonwhites and women -- results that may give Clinton pause, if not palpitations.

Hillary hasn't got it, and her best days are behind her. A lot can happen in two months, even with the holidays' distraction, to a woman with a corrupt foundation, illegal email server, no solid ethical position, and a coterie of "friends" with similar problems....

Something pertaining to quid pro quo, whatever that means. Good grief, Reagan did it in 1980 so it can't be all that bad.

16 points behind her now.

She is declining an invitation from Moveon to participate in a forum with the other candidates.

She declined to participate in the Justice Forum also this week.

It's clear that she cannot hold up in front of the public with questions that are not prepared.

That is why DWS has tried so hard to protect her from being in that position.
