In new shock poll, Sanders has landslides over both Trump and Bush
The Hill ^ | 11/11/2015 | Brent Budowsky

Posted on 11/17/2015 3:00:53 PM PST by Signalman

In a new McClatchy-Marist poll, Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) leads Republican candidate Donald Trump by a landslide margin of 12 percentage points, 53 to 41. In the McClatchy poll, Sanders also leads former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) by a landslide margin of 10 points, 51 to 41.

The huge Sanders advantage over Trump is not new. In the last four match-up polls between them reported by Real Clear Politics, Sanders defeated Trump by margins of 12, 9, 9 and 2 percentage points.

It is shocking that the data suggests that Sanders has a lead over Trump that could be so huge that he would win a landslide victory in the presidential campaign, with margins that would almost certainly lead Democrats to regain control of the Senate and could help Democrats regain control of the House of Representative — if, of course, the three polls that show Sanders beating Trump by 9 to 12 points reflect final voting in the presidential election.

The Hill linked to Real Fuzzy Politics who has put of none odf the three polls where Trump is ahead today, and left Trump out of their list from PPP in South Carolina where he is defeating Clinton in S Carolina, though they posted the other posts from S Carolina. RCP has become WORTHLESS

Does the link to McClatchy work for you? I get a 404.

But they did put up a Virginia poll where Carson is ahead, done by a bunch of dope smoking students, no doubt. RCP is no longer trustworthy.

What was the ratio of those polled, 75% socialists, 15% BLM chuckleheads and 5% Syrian refugees?

Yes it works for me but it is to Real Clear Politics. McClatchy was only one of the polls cited

More from the poll:

Clinton would defeat Rubio by 5 percentage points; Bush by 8; Cruz or Fiorina by 10; and Trump by 15. Sanders would defeat Rubio by 3 percentage points, Bush by 10, Cruz or Trump by 12, and Fiorina by 14.
Only Clinton would defeat the current Republican front-runner, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, by 2 percentage points, according to the poll. Sanders would lose to Carson by 2 percentage points.

Doesn’t make a lick of sense.

All the polls at Real Clear Politics for whatever match-up show a Democrat leading in most of them, whether that is Sanders, Clinton or Biden (who I guess was still being considered when the polls were taken).

Like Hillary would let Sanders live that long if he beat her in the nomination race.

What they’re not telling you is that Bernie was actually only second among the morons they polled. In fact, Kim Kardashian was the #1 response among the “likely voters” polled.

Nope. I got the 404 error too on all the McClatchy-Marist polls. Don’t want people to see the samples now do we?

A) Hillary will be the dems’ nominee.
B) Polls are all about emotion right now.
