MANCHESTER, New Hampshire (AP) – Hillary Clinton emerged from Iowa with a razor-thin victory over Bernie Sanders – and a new round of nervous second-guessing from supporters.
Topping the list of concerns is Clinton’s staggering disadvantage with young voters, a crucial Democratic constituency that overwhelmingly sided with Sanders in Iowa. Clinton supporters are also concerned that the campaign is still struggling with a muddled message, a problem that plagued her not only in the opening months of this campaign but also in her failed 2008 White House bid.
But the Democratic hand-wringing is balanced by something unusual for Clinton: cautious optimism that she has an organization that might be able to overcome her weaknesses.
