National Poll (Monmouth): Clinton 52% - 37% - O'Malley 2%

– Hillary Clinton’s lead over Bernie Sanders in the latest national
Monmouth University Poll has narrowed in the past month. However, Clinton retains a massive
advantage among black and Latino voters – groups that will play a prominent role in the primaries
immediately following Iowa and New Hampshire. She is also seen as the stronger nominee when pitted
against the Republican field.

It's just the way it is. A 11 point drop is significant.

Age 18-49 basically swapped. 52% for Clinton; now 52% for Sanders.


13 point drop of whites for Clinton. 10 point drop of women for Clinton.

He has actually lost ground with AA and Latino voters since December. That does not bode well for Sanders once past white dominated Iowa and NH. Furthermore we need a candidate that connects with people of color. They are key to winning any general election.
