How is that trash talking? Those are my honest beliefs. Bernie has no chance of winning the Democratic nomination. It's great that he's running for a lot of reasons, but he will not be the nominee.

We may see the first statement play out, but Hillary is running and we'll never know about the second one because Hillary chose to run.

And so far the numbers bear this out. He's not close anywhere. He's got high unfavorables with low name recognition.

Q4 Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of Bernie Sanders?
Favorable 38%
Unfavorable 26%
Not sure 36%

What do you believe Bernie's chances of winning are?
