In blockbuster poll, Sanders destroys Trump by 13 points

Stop the presses! According to a new poll by Quinnipiac University on Tuesday, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) destroys Republican candidate Donald Trump in a general election by 13 percentage points. In this new poll, Sanders has 51 percent to Trump's 38 percent. If this margin held in a general election, Democrats would almost certainly regain control of the United States Senate and very possibly the House of Representatives.

It is high time and long overdue for television networks such as CNN to end their obsession with Trump and report the all-important fact that in most polls, both Hillary Clinton and Sanders would defeat Trump by landslide margins. In the new Quinnipiac poll, Clinton would defeat Trump by 7 percentage points, which is itself impressive and would qualify as a landslide, while the Sanders lead of 13 points would bring a landslide of epic proportions.

Half the respondents thought it was a hypothetical matchup with Colonel Harlan Sanders. A perfectly ridiculous poll.

December, 1979: Stop the presses!

If the Republicans are foolish enough to nominate ex-Governor and grade-B actor Ronald "Bedtime for Bonzo" Reagan, polls clearly show Jimmy Carter demolishing him 62%-32%

They might as well match Trump up against the Mahatma, he’s just as likely to get the Democratic nomination.

And it is profoundly important and revealing that Sanders would defeat Trump by such a huge margin — 13 points in this poll — that analysts would be talking about a national political realignment and new progressive era in American history if an enlightened candidate such as Sanders would defeat a retrograde race-baiting candidate such as Trump by a potentially epic and historic margin.

There's no bias here. Nope, not a bit of liberal slant.

Sanders is actually the right choice of the Democrat party to choose. But Hillary is already buying the DNC nomination by paying off the DNC debt. I never knew this country allowed bribery to get nominated in a party selection. Have we stooped that low in our politics?

LOL!

Please nominate this socialist nut. He’s a plant for Billary to make her look centrist and young. Bernie has apologized to and stood up for Hillary in both debates.

Bernie Sanders is the Washington Generals presidential candidate.
