MANCHESTER, N.H. – Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) retains a double-digit lead over Hillary Clinton in a state poll released Sunday, but Clinton has begun to narrow his lead.

The CNN/WMUR poll showed about a third of New Hampshire Democrats saying they haven’t made a final choice two days before the nation’s first primary vote on Tuesday.

Sanders leads 58 percent to 35 percent in the survey of likely Democratic voters conducted by the University of New Hampshire, and he beats her in nearly every demographic.

Here is what everybody is forgetting to calculate in these scenarios: Bernie Sanders.

He has between 35 and 40% of the vote in national polls. His supporters are more dedicated than Hillary’s.

What do you think those voters will do if the DNC “steals” the nomination from Sanders? Will they turn out to vote for Binden, Warren, Gore, or Kerry?

No! They will stay home, write in Sanders name, vote for a third party or even cross to vote for the GOP candidate to punish those who stole the nomination from their guy.

If the DNC cheats Sanders, or it appears that way to his supporters, it won’t be a 1972 blowout, it will be a 1984 blowout.

I do a lot of work in nearby CT. I’m seeing quite a few “Bernie” stickers on cars. Gen Xer’s and millenials are going for him in a big way.

My gut says Bloomberg will come out before Biden.

Let’s see how well Bernie does in SC and on Super Tuesday. The bigger the state and more diverse the electorate, the more difficult it will be for Bernie to win. Bernie will get clobbered in SC, where the polls have Hillary ahead 62 to 33. Blacks make up about half of the Dem primary voters.

“Also, with Hillary tanking, I think there will be no reason not to indict her.”

If and when that occurs, the RAT spin machine will loose it’s bearings trying to do an about face.

Sanders does not have a lead. There haven’t been any votes.

Could this have anything to do with the FBI investigation?

Or the crassness of putting a server in a bathroom and endangering the lives of America's intelligence services?

Or is it the rumors of her trashing her husbands victims?

Or the easy remorseless way she lies?

Or any of a hundred other reasons...

So if she loses by 12 or less it’s a victory?

The media loves Sanders. I bet you didn’t know there are other NH polls released today.

They will try to bring in Biden/Warren. Also, with Hillary tanking, I think there will be no reason not to indict her.

Obama and his handlers may think otherwise. Just sayin’
