that Sanders supporters are more enthusiastic than Clinton supporters. I don't need to read about that. I know it already--it's in my bones.

Who you going to believe Gallup or your own lying eyes? The only comment this poll deserves is full blown laughter.

March 21st? Now why is that important?

Maybe because it was right after Hillary had her big run, and the day before Sanders started his.

So, yeah, sounds reasonable for March 21st, and it was not significantly larger ... what's the new polls say?

... but it's probably because they are more defensive because they are subject to far more attacks -- from everyone, not just people in their own party.
