With 60 percent of the vote among Iowa likely Democratic Caucus participants, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has an early lock on the first-in-the-nation presidential test, apparently undamaged by a nationwide flood of negative publicity, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.
This compares to a 61 percent Clinton showing in Iowa in a February 26 survey by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University.
U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont has 15 percent among Democrats, with 11 percent for Vice President Joseph Biden and 3 percent each for former U.S. Sen. James Webb of Virginia and former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley. Another 7 percent are undecided.
Clinton and Biden each get 7 percent on the "no way" list when likely Democratic Caucus participants name a candidate they would "definitely not support." Sanders gets 6 percent.

(1,926 posts)I turn on the news and it is Hillary, Hillary, Clinton Foundation, Hillary, Hillary. Then a little on the nutjub Republiscums.
Zero news about the fact that 99% of Americans agree with what Bernie has been fighting for his whole political career.
Ask everyone you know if they have donated to Bernie, and if not if they will be happy with a choice between Hillary and a Republican whack job for president.
I will donate some more to Bernie today.
