Just Released CNN-ORC Poll HRC 58% (+13) SBS 30% (+1) MOM 2% (+2)

[DemocratSinceBirth]

In a Democratic field that has winnowed to just three candidates, Hillary Clinton has regained a dominant lead over Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, topping him by a 28-point margin, her widest in CNN/ORC polling since July.

Clinton leads Sanders 58% to 30%, with former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley registering just 2%, according to a CNN/ORC Poll released Friday.

The poll finds Clinton widely seen as better able to handle matters of foreign policy than Sanders, an advantage that has likely helped the former secretary of state as global affairs and national security have gained prominence in the presidential campaign. Broad majorities of Democratic voters report that they trust Clinton most on foreign policy (74%) and handling ISIS (59%), and as best able to handle the responsibilities that come with being commander-in-chief (64%).

While Clinton tops Sanders as better able to handle economic issues (58% to 31%), the two are about even when voters are asked who would do the most to help the middle class (47% say Clinton would, 44% Sanders).

8. Gaining with voters under 55, Liberals, and Independents

In the October poll, Clinton and Sanders ran nearly evenly among voters under age 55 (42% Clinton to 37% Sanders), liberal voters (43% Clinton to 37% Sanders) and independents who lean toward the Democratic Party (41% Clinton to 37% Sanders).

In the new poll with the slimmed-down field, Clinton posts leads among each of those groups, topping Sanders 48% to 39% among those under age 55, 52% to 42% among liberals, and 48% to 40% among independents who lean toward the Democratic Party.

I was going to make a snarky remark but my brighter angels prohibit me.

Since that is the language being practiced 'round these parts.

18. Looking at that, Bernie up 6 and Clinton down 7 since late November in Ipsos-Reuters poll.

Clinton:58 Sanders:30 11/21-11/25

Clinton:51 Sanders:36 11/28-12/2

19. "Looking at that, Bernie up 6 and Clinton down 7 since late November in Ipsos-Reuters poll.'

Looking at that, Bernie up 6 and Clinton down 7 since late November in Ipsos-Reuters poll.

Clinton:58 Sanders:30 11/21-11/25

Clinton:51 Sanders:36 11/28-12/2

Looking at that Hillary is up five and Bernie is down four since Wednesday , December 2nd, 2015. At this rate it will be Hillary 100% Bernie, 0% by Christmas:

Clinton:51 Sanders:36 11/28-12/2

Clinton:56 Sanders 32 11/29-12/4

I believe that is why the Huffington Post aggregates polls to avoid just that.
