Bernie proves he is more electable with shocking new poll numbers.

If Team Clinton wants to pretend like Clinton is more electable than Bernie, they could start by showing something other than the exact opposite in the polls.

General election matchups among American voters show:
 Clinton tops Trump 46 – 41 percent, Sanders thumps Trump 49 – 39 percent
 Clinton ties Cruz 45 – 45 percent, Sanders edges Cruz 46 – 42 percent
 Clinton trails Rubio 48 – 41 percent, Sanders and Rubio are tied 43 – 43 percent

So as of now, if the Democratic Party wants to beat the three stooges leading the GOP, they would be wise to nominate Bernie. You simply can't argue otherwise.

Support of the death penalty in 2016 should be completely disqualifying, or is it just me?

Yet Hillary took the debate stage last night and unapologetically defended the barbaric practice, using the very conservative "it is the government's role to bring vengeance to bad people" line of argumentation.

I guess she isn't in any hurry to join the civilized world because it goes against opinion polling and focus groups.

When the Republicans beat the war drums again and sway public opinion in the direction of more senseless war, what will President Clinton do? Will she listen to her opinion polling or defend what is right yet unpopular?

I wish there weren't so many reasons to be all in on Bernie but his opponent keeps serving them up
