KEY BLOCK----- Folks - Please see below thread. NYT is fascinated with doing a piece for Monday suggesting "Clinton allies begin pondering chance of Iowa loss." I think they consider this to be a newer, edgier take on the Berniementum stories that have already been done. Amy claims they have heard whispers from "Clinton allies" that we need to start preparing for this possibility. I have told her that in addition to this being an absurd overreaction to a poll that showed her ahead by 19 pts, there is no such thing for us as "preparing for an Iowa loss," because we already are investing heavily in the other early states -- not to mention deploying organizers/doing house parties etc in Super Tuesday states and beyond -- at the same time we are prioritizing Iowa. I told her that she should not mistake some folks' attempts to try to be helpful by raising expectations on Bernie (Maria Cardona did say on CNN this week that he might win Iowa), as a reflection of the actual campaign's true thinking on the state of the race there. All of that said, I think it wise to provide a strong, on-the-record quote from HQ that dimisses the idea that we are bearish on Iowa and are plotting any contingency scenarios that presume a loss there. It could be from me, but I think it might be better to have it from Robby or Podesta. Below is a draft for consideration: "While we have always expected a competitive primary contest and continue to take nothing for granted, this campaign is built to win in Iowa. Hillary Clinton's regular travel to the state, and the organization we have already established on the ground, shows how committed we are to prevailing there." ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: *Lily Adams* <[email protected]> Date: Thursday, July 2, 2015 Subject: Fwd: NYT + Iowa To: Brian Fallon <[email protected]> Cc: Nick Merrill <[email protected]> Hey, so a few things from my conversation with her. She said all the organizational points were very helpful and that she'll use them. I also pushed her on the other stuff from the Q poll and made her clarify that the only polling proof point she was using was this one poll. She said she certainly wouldn't accuse us of taking Iowa for granted but asked if we'd ever contemplated a scenario where we lose Iowa. I said that no, we've built a team and operation here to win here. Brian - she'd like to talk to you about the FEC/fundraising point but also said that it would be helpful for you or someone nationally to weigh in on whether there was any conversation anywhere in the campaign about what happens if we don't win Iowa. She says both she and Pat have heard this. Can you assure her there is not and that we're focused on winning Iowa? I think this is one thing that's got to get swatted down because it'll send people here into a frenzy. Happy to chat this part over but is important to us here. She would like a quote from Matt so are you guys OK with sending her "We've always known that this would be a competitive primary, and we've said that from day one. A competitive race will mean a healthy and spirited debate about the issues, which we welcome. It's what's best for the party, for the country, and an opportunity for Hillary Clinton to put forth her ideas and let Iowans decide."
