A note about polling...

2. Thing is, the popularity of some of these candidates strains credibility

Trump's numbers are fairly spot on based on the people I work with. In my business, I interact with about a 60-40 split of conservatives and liberals. The number of Trumpsters is about 1-in-6, and the Sanders people are about 2-in-6, with both groups loud and enthusiastic. With Clinton, the only support I see is from a few of my southern Democrat acquaintances, and it is lukewarm at best. The other GOoPers are not even on the radar.

The published polls are just money manipulating the larger population demographics from which they draw their poll responses. For example, a poll can say that it draws from likely Democratic voters, but what they don't tell you is that it is likely Democratic voters who also watch Wheel of Fortune or Dancing With the Stars or some other criteria that tends to include a large number of supporters for a specific candidate.

Seeing how aggressive the HRC support has become on DU, especially as the numbers have contracted even further, it is obvious the internal polling is far different than what the campaigns are releasing.

My hope is that it is more difficult to cheat with a caucus tally than with the regular ballot box, electronic or paper.
