[left-of-center2012]

Former Vice President Joe Biden is heading into Michigan’s Democratic presidential primary on Tuesday with a 24-point lead over Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), according to a new poll.

Biden has 51 percent support in Michigan, according to the Detroit Free Press survey released on Monday, compared to 27 percent for Sanders.

Biden’s lead in Michigan follows his big wins in South Carolina and other Super Tuesday states.

“Something happened on Super Tuesday with (other) candidates getting out and people are all of a sudden questioning Bernie’s positions on issues,” Bernie Porn, pollster for Lansing-based EPIC-MRA, which conducted the survey of 400 likely Democratic primary voters between Wednesday and Friday, told the Free Press. “If anything, it may be low in terms of the percentage that Biden may get.”

1. "Bernie Porn" is the best pollster name in history.

Particularly in context of an ongoing race. That is just...phenomenal.
