About That New Hampshire Poll in the Boston Herald...

[TrollBuster9090]

Not that I wouldn't be thrilled to see Bernie ahead of Clinton (and everybody else for that matter) in the polls, but I smell a big, fat, PUSH-POLLING RAT here...(ie-a much more clumsy, much less subtle version of RASMUSSEN polling.) Take the results with a grain of salt.

A "Poll" That Conveniently Shows:
1. Donald Trump losing support (which might start putting an end to the GOP circular firing squad)
2. Carly Fiorina GAINING support (pushing her into the spotlight where she can take potshots at Clinton while hiding behind her X chromosomes.)
3. Bernie Sanders overtaking Hilary Clinton.

However, That "Poll"...
1. Was done by an organization that hasn't done a poll since 2008.
2. Was done by an organization attached to Franklin Pierce University, which is run by Andy Card (George Bush's Chief of Staff)
3. The organization that did the polling is run by Marlin Fitzwater, press secretary to Reagan and Bush I.

2. I'm from Boston and the Herald is just a RW rag.

Slightly less putrid than the NY Post. The folks at the Globe refer to it as "The Little Picture Paper." Its only educational value is for housebreaking your dog.

5. I was in Boston for the DNC in 04

I remember a copy of the Herald in a newsstand with an incredibly tacky headline about the Democrats in town. I was actually embarrassed for the city of Boston.
