Louisiana Poll: Hillary 57%, Biden 22%, Sanders 7%

17. No., because he's campaigned there

and people in that state know who he is, and what he stands for, as do the voters in Iowa by now.

But in the deep South, that he's barely been to. Too bad there's not a good way to tease out name recognition alone from having a vague idea what a person stands for from understanding quite clearly the differences between specific candidates.

We are rapidly getting past the basic name recognition thing, and I might well be completely wrong in my above post. But Bernie does not yet have the national presence Hillary has had since 1992, and that will persist until after Iowa caucuses and New Hampshire primary.

I have read here that Bernie is barely covered by the MSM. Since I don't own a TV, and only occasionally watch anything on line, so I don't know how accurate that is. I get my information from the internet, from reading books, magazines, and newspapers. So my perception of lots of things is very different from other people's.
