Should Hillary Skip NH and Focus on SC Instead?

No, a 60-40 win or greater for Sanders could only help him, she needs to close the gap to stop his momentum.

Of course not. The better Sanders does, the better he could do in later states. She will likely lose, but the margin matters. Then, she'll have 11 more days to focus on winning NV, where she could win. (oh, and I forgot that I had already posted a similar post, silly me )

That's just misguided. No amount of momentum Bernie gets from NH is going to help him enough to win anything substantial thereafter. Super Tuesday and beyond is and has always been Hillary's for the taking.

If that is true, what harm would it do to campaign in NH? Shouldn't she be competing in every state to win the nomination as soon as she can? It's not just about Bernie's momentum. Closing the gap in NH would give her momentum. I know she is not likely to win NH, but a strong showing there, beating expectations, can only help her.

I said she should campaign there, especially since it's a GE swing.

yes, I agree with you, but I also think that campaigning there could help her clinch the nomination.
