controlling the narrative with false and misleading information is a great way to avoid talking about the issues themselves.

both because of the weakness of current polling methodology being inaccurate and because of Hillary's consistent tendency to fade in contests due to high unfavorability ratings and because Bernie is a closer who has come from behind and won in many contests throughout his career all the way back to the yooge mayoral upset in 1981. Let's keep choppin' wood and we will win!

Btw, if we win NY, we win the White House. If we win NY, gambling odds will change, corporate media memes will change, everything, including California, will change.

So if you are near New York or in New York... Canvass!

If you are not close enough to Canvass! Phonebank!

Quinnipiac is through yesterday? And there are a few other new polls. I haven't looked at the pdf's though but the dates look pretty current on some.

Sorry if its just the ol' swiss cheese brain that is making me mis-read these.

Dray Clark reported a Siena poll that showed Bernie cutting Her lead in half . He's down by 10 and it was 21.

So you will undoubtedly see the Hillary supporters trying to imply all these polls at the same point means that his momentum is dead, but that is a bunch of malarkey as they are all just confirming the race was at 10-12 point gap at those points.
