Elizabeth Warren talks poor polling in New Hampshire campaign stops

PORTSMOUTH, N.H. — Presidential hopeful Elizabeth Warren tackled questions about her electability during her latest sweep through the Granite State — putting up a strong front even as her campaign remains dogged by lackluster polling and fundraising.

“I’m somebody who knows how to fight and knows how to win and that’s what I’m going to do,” Warren told reporters in Durham. “We’re going to win.”

Warren’s latest trip to New Hampshire came days after an Emerson College poll of Massachusetts Democratic primary voters put her in third behind U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Vice President Joe Biden. Warren garnered 14 percent of voters’ support in the poll, compared to Sanders’ 26 percent and Biden’s 23 percent.

“It’s early and I’m running the campaign that I want to run,” Warren said in response to her polling. “I love this. It’s a chance to get out and talk to people about what’s broken, about the optimism of we can fix it, and about how we’re going to build a grassroots movement to do it.”

Leave it to the Boston Herald to run a negative article about Elizabeth Warren. I'm certain that she will do fine in the debates and primaries.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

She may not be polling well now, but she will be absolutely formidable in the debates, and her numbers should rise as a result.

Maybe Senator Warren should sit down with a bowl of popcorn and watch the movie Primary Colors. In 1992, then Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton was said to be dead in New Hampshire, but he didn't quit, campaigning in the rain and rush hour traffic to shake people's hand on their way home from work. He did not win, but finished surprisingly strong, the rest is history.
