10. I don't know whether OP was talking about DU supporters or IRL supporters, but...

...yeah, you don't need to do a poll to find out about the former, you can just look at the OPs. Today, the #1 victim of negative OPs is Bloomberg, but they come from all corners; the #2 victim of negative OPs is Sanders, and they've come from Biden supporters.

In the pre-Bloomberg obsessed days, Sanders was the main focus of negative OPs (except on the days Gabbard made the news), and at least from the days I looked at, the attacks came mostly from Biden supporters, or undeclared. The second most attacked then was probably Biden, but he was not attacked nearly as much as Sanders... as I discussed at https://www.democraticunderground.com/1287450215#post12 where I'd surveyed recent posts at that time. So if we're talking about whose supporters on DU do the most attacking, yeah, I'd say it's been Biden supporters.

It's also interesting that, although there are more Warren supporters than Biden supporters on DU, there seem to be fewer negative posts from Warren supporters than Biden supporters.

5. According to news articles like this one from the NYT there have been no negative

ads in this campaign.

From what I see here the attacks on Sanders swamp any attacks on other candidates. Even some of the prolific posters who post a lot of news and opinion here have posted a lot of anti- Bernie news and opinion.

7. All Bernie knows how to do is attack. He's nothing more than a list of grievances.

There are good reasons why he has no friends in Congress.
