Well I'm convinced. I've been backing the wrong candidate. [View all]
Hillary 63% Bernie 29%. And all the lamenting in the world won't change those numbers.
Sanders supporters, please list the polls that you find acceptable.
Oh, snap! Because no underdog in the polls has EVER come back to win an election. What was I thinking? How could I have been so foolish? Except in 2007 of course when I was rooting for Obama and every day someone made a point of posting a poll showing him behind in one aspect or another, some state or another, the entire country, lost that debate, etc etc.
"But Bernie is no Obama! Things are different this time around!"
I'll tell you one thing that's the same: Hillary is still Hillary. Obama didn't win solely because he was Obama -- he also won because he was not Hillary. He had no more foreign policy experience than she did (possibly less) but that didn't translate into victory for her. All the polls in the world can't change the fact that likeability matters, and history sometimes repeats itself. Just ask Mitt Romney.
