No one here wants a Republican president, right?

[rhett o rick]

2. Those that support Clinton will do so even if they know she will lose the General.

Its a loyalty thing.

[tk2kewl]

5. loyalty to what exactly?

[Dragonfli]

8. loyalty much like the phenomena of groupies to singers (The Bieber effect)

It can't be helped, there will always be irrational fanboy/fangirl types that fixate obsessively on a personality that is well known.

It happens.

15. Thanks

11. isn't it funny how one enjoys polls that agree with their personal choices, but

find them lacking, inadequate, wrong, biased, prejudiced, dishonest, partisan, one-sided, false, deceitful;, crooked, corrupt, unscrupulous, and fraudulent when the results show the opposite of their beliefs.

present company excepted, of course

12. Hilarious, actually

these are averages of polls from multiple outlets btw.

13. Only one candidate has surpassed Trump in votes. It's Hillary

[tk2kewl]

14. Given that the Republican race is between 4 candidates...

...while the Democratic race is between 2, and Republicans have been outpacing Democrats at the polls, the fact that Hillary has more votes than Trump isn't telling me much. If the Republican race were just 2 candidates Trump would very likely be way ahead on this measure.

Also, we have barely scratched the surface on states with liberal urban populations where I think Bernie will continue to surprise.

Add to that the fact that Bernie is consistently beating his polling numbers by wide margins http://www.alternet.org/election-2016/why-bernies-campaign-defying-entire-polling-industry

And finally: Bernie kills it with indies (40+% of the electorate) which will decide the GE - Hillary, meh

The writing is on the wall: Bernie is the Democrats' best bet in November.
