Looks like the primary race is just about done




I think we are now seeing a lot of evidence that this primary race is nearing its end as an actual “race to the nomination”. If polling is any indication, Democratic primary voters are preferring Hillary over Bernie by large margins.
NATIONAL POLL:

Out today, NBC/SurveyMonkey has the following findings:

Hillary Clinton's Lead Over Bernie Sanders Swells After Strong Super Tuesday

Coming off of key Super Tuesday wins and a victory in the Louisiana primary, Hillary Clinton is up 4 points and Bernie Sanders dropped 3 points nationally inthe latest NBC News|SurveyMonkey Weekly Election Tracking Poll.

This is the first large shift in our tracking poll since its debut in the first week of January. Clinton now enjoys a 17-point lead over Sanders headed into Michigan and Mississippi on Tuesday night. These results are from the latest Weekly Tracking Poll conducted online among a national sample of 21,996 adults, including 19,051 who say they are registered to vote.

Hillary 55% Bernie 38%

Hillary is strongly widening her national lead over Bernie in this survey from last week’s survey in this online tracking poll.

1. People want someone with a level head who does what is best for the country.

Not someone who hates Wall Street so much, he is willing to let the auto industry die with it:

You could argue that the effort to slash funding for TARP in January 2009 was really just a protest vote against the design of the program, as other Democrats have said. And admittedly, TARP evolved over the months as federal officials moved away from the original idea of buying up bad bank assets and found more efficient, less costly ways to shore up the financial industry and ease the credit crunch.

But again, protest votes are easy. Coming up with workable policy is hard, and Congress didn't have the luxury of time in those days. Perhaps Sanders has forgotten how dire things were after Lehman Bros. failed and AIG, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac all cratered. The economy was sinking fast, dragged down by a financial sector that had lost its ability to price risk and lend money.

Candidates often get torn apart in campaigns for supporting this or that compromise, as their opponents invariably focus on the less savory elements of the package and ignore the overarching reasons to vote for the thing. Here, Clinton is blasting Sanders for the opposite reason: He opposed a compromise that included something widely viewed by Democrats as a good idea (the auto bailout) because other elements of the package were less savory to his anti-Wall Street worldview.

That was his choice. He can say he was for the auto bailout at one point, but that was before he was against it.
