Clinton, Sanders Are In A Dead Heat; Trump Leads But Rubio Rises
Investor's Business Daily ^ | 2/25/2016 | John Merline

Despite her win in the Nevada caucuses Saturday, Hillary Clinton’s lead among Democrats over Bernie Sanders has evaporated nationally, 45% to 43%, according to the latest IBD/TIPP poll. Last month, Clinton topped Sanders 50% to 38%.

On the GOP side, Donald Trump held steady at 31%. Ted Cruz dropped a point to 20%. Marco Rubio, however, saw his support climb eight percentage points to reach 18% — a clear sign that much of the support of candidates dropping out the race have been gravitating to Rubio.

Meanwhile, Ben Carson has 8% and John Kasich has risen to 7%. Both are resisting pressure to step aside.

You won’t hear it from the media but Bernie is far ahead in the popular vote count.

If Hillary wins the nomination losing the popular vote the Berniebots will set the DNC on fire. They will have their revolution.

I think the media wants Sanders the socialist as the media are all the most rabid socialist marxists ever.

The media is also doing the same thing they did last time knock down Hillary so Obama gets in. this time their Obama is sanders .the media know Hillary can't win . same MO this time.

Watch the media install Sanders as the next president. I know they are planning to murder Trump as they did Scalia

I read the posts of Berniebots after Hitlery won Nevada. They were practically suicidal - and the hate for Hitlery rivaled that of normal people.

I say that when Hitlery “wins”, these Berniebots will go ballistic. They will likely not take part in the general, and may even flip their vote to Trump, for revenge.

SC will change the equation with a big Hillary win. And it will be all over for Bernie after Super Tuesday. This is all a charade.

Is the GOPe now pushing Rubio? Is it because they can
either control or buy him? Or is it because they know
he cannot beat Hillary?

You can extrapolate from the headline how far this country has fallen. Rubio, really?
