OK, Sanders insulted Clinton by suggesting she is the lesser of two evils, or at least many people see her that way because she has high negatives in polls. How does this strike you?

It's a gratuitous insult. Sanders is a creep. He needs to drop out and shut up. | |

Sanders is telling an uncomfortable truth about the candidates we offer the voters, but he should cool it. | |

Sanders needs to carry forward with this theme to boost the progressive cause. | |

(6,409 posts)Since some people are jumping on me, accusing me of doing a poll just to attack Clinton, I will tell you I would respond to my own poll with the second choice. I do think there is a grain of truth in what Sanders said, but it didn't need to be said. Anyway, none of the polls here represent anything, so please relax and try to be nice to each other. Thank you.

(6,409 posts)If Trump is 100 percent evil, and Clinton is "lesser," then she would come in at 90, 80, what? And 70 percent of that would be 63, 56, etc. I would tell Bernie, "Hell yes, lesser. Much lesser!"

(23,950 posts)Barring an indictment of Clinton, she is the nominee. The super-delegates will not flip en masse.
I intend to hold my nose and vote Clinton in the general. (my state's primary is done)

(27,835 posts)... comprised of 85% Bernie supporters, I'm sure the results of this poll will be "fair and balanced", and reflective of US voters as a whole.
