8. 'Don't know' is ahead of Bernie in Iowa? That's weird. Plus Biden's not running...

And it was people running from the 'albatross' Barack Obama that was cited as a reason POC didn't turn out in 2012 / 2012.

HRC has endorsed him since 2008 with disagreements (she's NOT a robot) but embraced him to the crowd's cheers in NYC.

I HATE these biased kinds of polls that say things like that, they are just NASTY. It was hard to keep reading after that statement.

NH looks close. I don't see them as the bellwether they once were.

Despite the greatness of the Northeastern USA, a lot of the population moved south and west. Those areas are important electorally and the NE will lose its electoral college advantage as it has in Congress probably.

That is only a guess, not a slur, don't shoot me!

I can hardly wait for the real voting to start and see numbers that will indicate:

A): Who our candidate will be - by the primary voters.

B): Who wins the prom date with the Koch brothers.

C): Who is ahead in the general election.

Really, what else is there to say?

Looking at DU, minds are made up with no change of opinion. It's either gonna be:

#1: Democrats are useless and evil vs Democrats are good.

#2: I'm voting for HRC vs I'm voting for BS.

#3: If HRC gets the nomination, I'm not going to vote, period.

DU has been reduced to that and no issue will change minds.
