1. Truth.

2. Too bad these numbers can't be accurately calculated until weeks after the conventions.

Total fantasy, right now.

4. Yep, safer just to go with the candidate with the 54% disapproval rating.

6. I would prefer to not start out in the hole. But that's me.

3. I guess we like this poll.

5. Bernie's stance on gun rights.

Will be a HUGE boon in the GE and will be the BANE of Hillary's existence.

I wonder if the Cruz number is partially so high because it finds a number of people who back Trump would support Bernie as well.

10. Yep. Gun control is toxic in presidential campaigns.

Even Hillary is not as big a motivator of the GOP base as a Democratic platform with aggressive gun control measures. It would just about guarantee the Senate stays under Republican control...just in time to confirm Justice Cruz.

7. Ignoring facts is a dangerous game.

Too many have been doing it for too long in this country. As the graphic shows so clearly, if we don't face facts this time, we may be pretty well sunk. I don't think we can take much more Repub/Third Way irrational nonsense.

8. He gets 70% of the independent vote, and every day I hear about another repug or Libertarian

switching to Bernie. If he had half as much press as Hillary and every state had an open primary he would win by a landslide.

9. It's looking more and more like a Cruz-Kasich ticket which MAXIMIZES Sanders' advantage.

11. Here's Cenk Uygur breaking it down.

12. I'm not so sure. He won't have the multi millions in wall street money that Clinton will have

Also big media will savage him - he's just not part of the nyt/WaPo/msnbc circle. Iow the real power brokers would love president Clinton, hate president Sanders. That will be tough to beat. I don't really care, however.
