Peter alexander on the trail in South Carolina. Democrats Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton come tonight at their first debate since sanders landslide win in New Hampshire. Reporter good morning to you. The stakes couldnt be higher here in milwaukee. Secretary clinton hoping to deliver a solid performance. Senator sanders hoping to build on his momentum and prove he is the top contender. Its fight night in milwaukee.

Reporter aides say secretary clinton is looking to draw sharp contrast with sanders over guns, health care and criminal Justice Reform and wont hesitate to pounce. Sanders winning today. His aides tell me he raked in more than 7 million since New Hampshire. Clinton Officials Say they are happy with their fundraising figures, as well but wouldnt release an exact dollar amount. Turn now to mark halpern. What is in her mind right now in. We have seen the clintons and campaigns over decades and an old political expression things are bad for her now. Big loss in New Hampshire. There is question within the campaign about whether she has confidence in her team. Some people on her team are worried she is not performing well enough as a candidate. The fundraising figures are horrible for Hillary Clinton. She cant raise money like Bernie Sanders. She has to start turning things around and winning the news cycle. The debate is important. First in nevada in caucuses and here in South Carolina she has to start beating Bernie Sanders to give herself confidence and her team confidence. From the very beginning it was thought that she would do well with women of all ages. Looking at New Hampshire she lost that demographic by about ten percentage points. The common belief is she will do well with minorities. I dont think she can take anything for granted. Her campaign is making inevitability argument. Bernie sanders again making an aggressive push. He is on offense. She needs to do more than just defend her support of minority voters. Here in South Carolina africanamerican voters matter. Female africanamerican voters matter a lot. Bernie sanders has a message that will try to appeal to a broader electorate. Right now she has more challenges. And, mark, on the republican side of things, its very interesting because we are seeing the dynamic play out where you have cruz and trump. Why are they continuing with this circular firing squad strategy . Why dont they take on the front runners . Its a great question. Jeb bush has been taking on that makes him stand out.

This may be a trump cruz battle. Godzilla and king cong are fighting. The other guys need to show they can play at that level, as well. A tragic story.
