2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumHillary's negatives vs her lead in polls.
If a poll included a sample of all possible voters then it would include repubs and Bernie supporters who when asked if they trusted Hillary would most likely answer "no."
But in today's poll of only Dems she leads Bernie by 2 to 1.
These two polls would have no correlation because the populations sampled were different.

Clinton leads every Democrat under the sun
We also tested Clinton head to head against Biden, Sanders, Gore, Warren, and Kerry. Biden comes the closest- in a head to head against Clinton he trails only 51/38. No one else can come within 20 points of Clinton when it comes to a one on one contest. Sanders trails 54/34, Warren 58/28, Gore 67/22, and Kerry 69/17

it seems like a lot of folks aren't nearly as into the Vermont independent as his acolytes believe.

It can be part of the Sour Grapes series.
