Litany of non sequiturs

Jonathan Last has been attending speeches by Hillary Clinton in Iowa and New Hampshire, which should earn him a hefty raise from the Weekly Standard. He does not think she is a very good candidate.
She has regressed as a candidate, and it's already hurting her. Barring indictment, she'll probably grind her way to the nomination. But already, the Iowa entrance poll numbers portend problems for her down the road. Among voters ages 17 to 29, Sanders beat her by an incredible 84 percent to 14 percent. Among voters 30 to 44, Sanders was only 21 points ahead. It takes a good candidate to turn out voters in the general election who were cool to them in the primaries.
Read the whole thing here, including a video of her speech on caucus night in Iowa.
