"The Monmouth University Poll also found that likely caucusgoers hold overwhelmingly positive views of both Clinton (78% favorable – 17% unfavorable) and Sanders (85% favorable – 9% unfavorable). O’Malley earns a 50% favorable and 14% unfavorable rating, with 36% having no opinion of him. Most voters would be happy if either of the two leading contenders became the Democratic nominee. About 8-in-10 would be either enthusiastic (39%) or satisfied (40%) with Clinton as the nominee, and a similar number say the same about Sanders (34% enthusiastic and 47% satisfied)."

So more hold a favorable view of Bernie and more would be satisfied if he wins, but more would be enthusiastic about a Hillary win. Not sure this makes a lot of sense.

Since MOM's crew will need to choose one or the other unless he comes up with 15%.

5% differential and 12% likely to still choose one or the other.
