Clinton: Americans are hungry for real solutions
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and her supporters breathed a sigh of relief Saturday following a narrow win in the Nevada caucuses.
I am so, so thrilled and so grateful to all of my supporters out there, Clinton told a crowd of cheering supporters in Las Vegas. Some may have doubted us but we never doubted each other.

................
Las Vegas (CNN) Hillary Clinton notched a decisive win in the Nevada Democratic caucuses Saturday that could go a long way to helping her regain her footing on the path to the nomination.
....................
Clinton's win was powered by strong turnout among minority voters and a well-organized machine in populous Clark County, where she was beating Sanders 52.5% to 47.4% with 87% of the vote counted.
"I am so thrilled and so grateful to all my supporters out there," Clinton said as she took the stage at her victory rally in a ballroom at Caesar's Palace, giving a special thank you to hotel and casino workers "who never wavered."
"Some may have doubted us but we never doubted each other, and this one is for you," she said.
Clinton struck a populist tone as she sought to channel the anger of voters against big banks and corporations, which Sanders has so skillfully harnessed.
"Let me say this to the men and women who run our country's corporations: If you cheat your employees, exploit consumers, pollute our environment or rip off taxpayers, we are going to hold you accountable," Clinton said.
She also subtly knocked Sanders' agenda as unachievable: "Americans are right to be angry but we are also hungry for real solutions."
Wrapping up the rally, Clinton told her supporters she was headed to the upcoming primary state of Texas while her husband was headed to Colorado.
"The fight goes on!" Clinton said as the room erupted into cheers.

The Guardian has its usual hit piece......and another reporter so tied up in their bias, they do not know that a win by 6 points id a decisive!!
Hillary Clinton needs hope and change. Can she accept that before it's too late?

After a narrow win in Nevada, she has South Carolinas African American establishment behind her. But in 2016, the political class guarantees nothing
