2. Harris has to get up and over Sanders. Maybe she can do it in the debate. I want a 3 person race.

 

Harris, Warren, Biden.

5. that's where it is headed I think

 

Warren left, Biden middle, Harris in between and the voters will have three paths and three candidates to chose from that can win in the GE.

6. Bernie remained level in this poll...

 

...and has been gaining support since the last couple of YouGov/Economist polls. But hey, who cares about facts if they don't fit the narrative, right?

7. Is 13% believed to be his new floor? I haven't been paying attention.

8. I don't think so.

 

RCP has had him hovering around 15% for a while so that's probably where his floor is. As you know, some polls are better for various candidates than others. YouGov/Economist is one of Bernie's worst polls.

10. I thought 25% was, and then 18%. So, now 13% tells me not so solid.

11. I checked a poll aggregator, and his lowest was 11, a couple

 

of 13s as mentioned, and the others were higher. The highest 2 were 20. I just glanced, didn't try to weight the numbers for bias or reliability.

I'm guessing we'll see a lift for him from allying with Warren last night. She's been anxious to separate her image from his before, rejecting a socialist label, quoting Hillary, expressing her longtime support for harnessed capitalism, etcetera, and what she's going to do with this I have no real idea. There's no doubt the two standing together had an impact, but it's been believed that his extremism would drag her down if she couldn't separate her perceived ideology from his. Her RCP favorability average still shows unfavorables somewhat higher than positives on all 4 polls shown.
