(27,758 posts)Maddow stated that a majority of Democratic voters have expected Clinton to win the nomination since the beginning of the campaign.The bottom chart that shows the whole time period bears that out, and both show that there is still a gap. But your chart shows the gap between the two started smaller and ended even smaller. The poll Maddow used shows Clinton at a much higher level of popularity at the beginning of the campaign, and a significantly larger gap between the two by the first week of February 2016.
If you're saying that Maddow is cheating or unethically supporting Clinton because she used a different poll, I'm afraid I don't follow your line of reasoning.
That said, I do get tired of the Bernie supporters' use of catch phrases like "Clinton ethics" to flog their conviction that Clinton is a She-devil who is as bad as the Republican candidates - which is totally untrue. And of course, anyone who suggests that Clinton might win is tarred by the same nasty brush. There goes Maddow, under the bus. Wasn't loyal enough to Bernie, I guess.
