A poll conducted by YouGov for the Run Warren Run campaign (hmm, something smells already) found that Elizabeth Warren is leading Hillary Clinton in Iowa and New Hampshire.
Pro-Warren people are of course promoting the results:

The “poll” shows great news for Fauxcahontas:

But, scratch not even below the surface:
@emmaroller They don't ask the poll test until after a bunch of positive message-test questions about Warren…

I know I know. You want to tweak HRC with Comrade Warren. This "poll" however is a marketing tool, not a survey. http://t.co/zO5jszqEZi

Not exactly “scientific”:
Eliz Warren has said things like "No one should be above the law" & "Politicians…work for us." Agree or disagree? Poll finds people agree!

MoveOn wants Warren to run for president, so naturally they’re also promoting the “poll.”

@dylanlscott @Nate_Cohn tl;dr: "Elizabeth Warren. Elizabeth Warren. Elizabeth Warren! ELIZABETH. WARREN."
"Unrelated, who'd you vote for?"

MoveOn is pretty clear that this poll with Warren over Hillary is a leading poll and that's kinda their point: http://t.co/PcYB8KFOyb

Hillary won’t forget this:
.@TheRickWilson There's something beautiful in the way that MoveOn has, well, actually moved on. AND HILLARY WILL MAKE THEM PAY.
