TYT: Bernie Sanders Takes The Lead

[WhoIsNumberNone]

It’s real. Bernie Sanders isn’t coming… he’s already here. Yesterday he was down by three, today he’s up by five in Iowa. Along with New Hampshire he is now leading in the first two primary states. Cenk Uygur, host of the The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

"Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) is surging in early-state polling as the Democratic presidential primary approaches its final stretch before Iowa and New Hampshire voters weigh in.

In a poll out Tuesday, Sanders was even ahead of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton among likely Democratic caucusgoers in Iowa.

The Quinnipiac University survey found Sanders with 49% support to Clinton's 44% in Iowa.

That represented a turnaround for Sanders in Iowa, as the same pollster found 51% for Clinton and 40% for Sanders there last month.

"After three months of Secretary Hillary Clinton holding an average 10-point lead among Iowa Democrats, the playing field has changed," Quinnipiac assistant director Peter Brown said in a statement.”*

2. Mrs. Clinton will hit another spped bump over what Chelsea said yesterday

However, let's go to today's news. If I were one of Bernie's campaign consultants, I'd put out a press release about Eric Holder endorsing Mrs. Clinton. Does this indicate that she'll be as tough on Wall Street as he was?

3. Seeing a pic of Bernie in front an energized crowd....

6. Crash and burn

The beginning of the end for the Clinton campaign. Go Bernie!
