(9,870 posts).....that less Democrats "approve" of HRC than of Bernie.
This is important to understand in terms of preparing ourselves for 2018.
You want to see it as no more important than a Taylor Swift popularity vote---but we lost massively in 2016 and need some seriously re-examined understanding of what really happened.
Not what happened for HRC personally. That's over. But what happened to the Party nationwide. Isn't the health of the Party bigger and more important that Hillary?
The poll that approves of him is, I suspect, not about his winning smile--it's about his authenticity and his policies. The fact that he says he's going to fight for Medicare in a national campaign. He didn't go off and lick his wounds. He kept right on fighting and being Bernie. People see that and respect it.
