Hillary Clinton's Closing Argument of the Primary NBC News

Alex Mendola is a young college student and ardent Bernie Sanders supporter. At least he was until he heard former president Bill Clinton speak to him yesterday. The Clinton campaign reports that growing numbers of Sanders folks are becoming concerned about the prospects of the country actually electing Bernie Sanders as president.

"I was a solid Bernie voter, but now I'm not so sure," Mendola said after listening to the former president's remarks, which focused on the stakes of the election and Hillary Clinton's experience. "If Bernie won the primary and lost the general election, I think that would be disaster. So even if don't like Hillary as much as Bernie, I feel more confident that she would win the general election. And I think that's what's going to persuade me to vote for Hillary if I do."

NARAL Endorses Hillary Clinton, Making Up for 2008 Snub NBC News

In a sign of the strength of Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination, NARAL Pro-Choice America endorsed her candidacy on Tuesday.

"I am honored to earn the endorsement of NARAL Pro-Choice America PAC. As one of our country's leading advocates for reproductive rights, NARAL's work is more important than ever," Clinton said in a statement on Tuesday. "I will stand with NARAL and women across the country in defending access to abortion, contraception, and sex education. I will stand with NARAL in advocating for policies that help women and families. The stakes could not be higher in this election, and I am grateful to the more than 1 million members of NARAL for their support," she added.

The NARAL endorsement has symbolic value as well. In 2008, the organization chose to endorse then Sen. Barack Obama over Clinton in the midst of the bitter Democratic presidential primary fight. The decision to back Obama was widely viewing as shocking snub, considering Clinton's long history of backing women's rights causes.

Hillary By The Numbers

The Clinton campaign closed the year 2015 with a statistical recap of all its accomplishments, writes Politico. Bottom line, the campaign reinforces the message over and over again that Clintonites take NOTHING for granted. The results:

5.52 million doors knocked and phone calls made by volunteers; 168,396 campaign miles logged by the candidate; 38 states visited; 524 town hall questions asked and answered; 89,000 volunteers helping fight for the cause; way too many selfies to count.

Wait! There's more: 1,728 librarians -- tells you something about Democrats and learning; 655 cashiers, seven bakers, eight butchers, 61 sculptors and one candlestick maker. All admit that Hillary has donors with deeper pockets, but the campaign stresses that about 94 percent of her donations are under $200.

Drum Roll Please

The campaign released its fundraising numbers this morning on New Year's Day. Our future president Hillary Clinton blasted out an incredible fundraising quarter of $37 million for the fourth quarter PLUS another $18 million in a joint fundraising effort with the DNC. This gives Hillary $55 million for the quarter.
