(CNN)Americans don't agree on much in politics these days, but a new poll finds broad majorities in agreement that the front-runners for the Republican and Democratic nominations for president will wind up the winners in the end.

According to a new CNN/ORC poll out Monday, 84% of voters nationwide think Donald Trump will lead the Republican ticket in November, while 85% say the same about Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton.

..................
The Democrats
On the Democratic side, 51% say Clinton is their top choice for the nomination, 43% Sanders, that's about the same as in March. And enthusiasm for a Clinton candidacy has grown as her chances of winning enough delegates to become the presumptive nominee have increased. In the new poll, 41% say they would be enthusiastic about her candidacy, up from 34% in March. .....................

1. ...resulting in a Democratic White House, Senate, and House of Representatives. nt

[Scootaloo]

7. With nothing but her Primary voters, no less

That'll be a sight to see, no doubt.

[JDPriestly]

14. Like the election in 2014? Or the one in 2010?

It's corruption, pure and simple.

Get the corporate money including Hillary's corporate money out of politics.

[Buzz Clik]

2. +1

[Thinkingabout]

3. Yes, Hillary and Bill have gone to bat for many candidates and will continue to do so.

[Plucketeer]

4. The media that FORCE FED it's audience

ought to be able to predict what they think. Impropaganda.

[AlbertCat]

5. Just like CNN wanted!

...

6. Woe to the republic.

A gift for Hillary supporters:

8. Thank you, Sen. Franken.

Right there is the reason why Democrats in office are supporting Hillary. She has helped them win or retain their jobs. She has campaigned and fundraised for other Democrats. What has Sanders done since last summer to help Democrats to make gains in Congress?

[JDPriestly]

13. Just like in the good old days of Tammany Hall.

That's called corruption -- it is one aspect of corruption.

Get the corporate money out of politics.

Get Hillary's corporate money out of politics.

[Beacool]

15. Oh, for crying out loud!!!!

Democrats help other Democrats. How do party leaders help the new crop of Democrats? They campaign for them and fundraise to help them in their race against Republicans.

How else does anyone get elected? If money equals corruption, then how come Sanders has raised so much money for his campaign?

[JDPriestly]

16. It isn't money per se that equals corruption.

When large amounts of money come from corporations and the wealthy rather than from ordinary citizens, that equals corruption.

And when a politician like Hillary takes money whether for speeches or as donations from the corporations, the business interests, and hands it along to senators like Al Franken and representatives and others in politics, that's corruption multiplied many times.

Hillary practices corruption and calls it politics. That's what Tammany Hall was about.

17. Little progress can be made without strongly supporting Dems

A fundamental and necessary step that seems to get missed by some/someone.

Esprit de corps.

As you point out, Hillary Clinton already has the backing of most Democrats in office, and she in turn will do all she can to back them, as well as to add more Democrats to office--turning all areas as blue as possible--the path of progress.

It will be wonderful to watch many Republican obstructionists/regressives pack up and leave. Can't wait to watch them go.

[Beacool]

19. Exactly!!

A president can only do so much without Congress to back him/her up.

[George II]

9. Another great Obama quote:

[onehandle]

11. Ouch.

That was quite a Bern on someone.

[Beacool]

20. I missed that, good for him!!!

[big_dog]

22. that was pretty funny

the crowd liked it too

[Duckfan]

10. It's the Clinton News Network. What do you expect?

[JDPriestly]

12. Hillary's definition of "progressive values" is not mine.

I'm with Bernie.

Hillary's and Obama's policies in Syria are costing lives and creating refugees.

Read Seymour Hersh on this topic.

[Democat]

18. If the choice comes down to Clinton or Trump, the choice is obvious

I have always said that I will happily support either Democratic candidate over any Republican.

[LiberalLovinLug]

21. Gee what a stretch

The two front runners will eventually square off?

A superfluous poll, only done to further pound home the end game and catapult the propaganda. To help dissuade a few more Democrats that once were planning to vote Hillary and may be now leaning to Bernie, as thousands of others have done as they have gotten to know more about both Clinton and Sanders.

Sanders has a slim hope already, the MSM is just running around plugging all the holes to make sure there will be no surprises, no matter how unlikely.
