First Read is a morning briefing from Meet
the Press and the NBC Political Unit on the day's most important
political stories and why they matter.
Team Clinton is feeling the pressure
Forget the polls. When Chelsea Clinton - in her first true campaign event of this presidential season -- is attacking Bernie Sanders on health care,
you know the Clinton campaign thinks they're in a closer race than they
might have ever imagined. (Chelsea campaigned plenty in '08, but we
don't ever remember her throwing these kinds of jabs at Barack Obama or
John Edwards.) "I'm working hard, and I intend to keep working as hard
as I can," Hillary Clinton said on "Today" this morning when NBC's
Savannah Guthrie asked her about the tightening polls. "I am excited
where we are." And Clinton continued to criticize Sanders on guns and
health care. "We shouldn't be ripping up Obamacare and starting over,"
she said, referring to Sanders' proposal for a single-payer system.
We're now less than 20 days from Iowa, and Team Clinton is certainly
feeling the pressure.
