Reuters poll finds Sanders cutting Biden national lead to single digits
The Hill ^ | 03 17 2020 | John Bowden

Posted on 03/17/2020 2:11:00 PM PDT by yesthatjallen

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has surged back into a single-digit deficit behind former Vice President Joe Biden in a poll of the Democratic primary field.

Sanders trails Biden by 9 percentage points in a Reuters/Ipsos poll released Tuesday, just one week after trailing the former vice president by 21 points in the same poll.

The Vermont senator sits at 39 percent among registered Democratic voters in the poll, compared to 48 percent for Biden. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii), the only other high-profile Democratic contender remaining in the race, sat at 2 percent in the poll.

Sanders is hoping for a resurgence in the primary after a damaging series of losses to Biden in South Carolina, ten states voting on Super Tuesday and then in Michigan last week. He now trails Biden by about 150 pledged delegates.

Three states are holding contests on Tuesday, with Biden favored in all three. But the coronavirus crisis gripping the country has added some uncertainty to the contests ahead. Ohio was also scheduled to hold a primary on Tuesday, but it was postponed due to worries about coronavirus.

despite corrupt liberal media commentary, the fact that Sleepy Joe flubbed the Chinese virus and the names of the previous viruses multiple times was shocking and hurt him....

Crazy Bernie comes across more coherently than Sleepy Joe, which isn’t saying much.

both are clearly unelectable.

Is the old cisgendered white male still ahead of the other old cisgendered white male?

Or a Socialist.

 

Question. Is this a picture taken in Venezuela? Or the USA?

Image result for empty shelves

 

If Bernie is elected - it won't make any diiference.

If it does, I hope the bottles empty. Would be a waste of beer.

Sometimes I go to vote and there are names on the ballot of people I've never even heard of.

The failed mayor of South Bend this year, and twelve years earlier the foreign communist junior US Senator from Illinois. How do freaks like that even make it on the ballot?

She’s officially a candidate.

Keep an eye on her. She’s kinda cute in a tomboy way, and she just might be important here in a few months.

“Crazy Bernie comes across more coherently than Sleepy Joe, which isn’t saying much.”

The mad scientist who wants revenge on humanity comes across more coherently than Elmer Fudd after he had an anvil dropped on his head. Very reassuring;^E}

Joe owes the DNC a lot for keeping Tulsi out of the last debate.

Bernie knew what he was doing by staying in the race.
The more you force Joe Biden onto live television, the
less well he is going to do.

Yes that would be awesome to see if they did, Bernie bots get screwed again, chaos in the primaries is what we want, with Bernie in the 40 percent range, and an utter breakdown at the convention. If Biden makes it to the general, all his wandering around talking to himself will make a great political ad.

Tulsi would be the front runner before too long if she got in front of a camera alongside those two alte kakkers.

1. She’s coherent;
2. She’s really smarter than the aforementioned geezers, which isn’t saying much;
3. Face it. She’s got more in front than they do, ‘cuz she’s purty and young and a female.
4. Trump will have to tread softly. She has all those female weapons, like crying or looking hurt, that Hillary had scalded out of her by her hard-bitten struggle for power. Give her 30 years and she’ll look the same and cackle just as evilly, but right now she’s too hot to make fun of. How can he even nick-name her properly?

Maybe the DNC is hoping the Burn and Quid Pro Joe will be taken out by Covid-19 and Tulsi will get the woman-card AND sympathy vote..... it may be the main reason she has stayed in the race...

What? The MSM rejoiced that Biden wiped the floor with Sanders in the debate, the way Hulk smashed Loki into the concrete.

I guess Biden was just too aggressive.

You can’t keep Weekend at Bernies down.

“We should have our own poll, who sucks worse; Crazy Bernie or Senile Joe?”

I’m fairly certain that both have had joysticks implanted just in case they should be elected puppet.

If anyone is interested in some real entertainment regarding this and you don’t mind a little Twitter in your life, then do hop on these hashtags: #BernieOrBust #NeverBiden. It is delicious to read the back and forth between the Bernie Brats and the Biden Braindeads. Bernie supporters ain’t takin’ it layin’ down this time!

“How can he even nick-name her properly?”

The only thing I can think of at the moment is to just call her Tulsa.

it wouldn’t matter if Bernie got 110 percent of the votes prior to the D convention, the DNC will NOT nominate him (and he isn’t even a D anyway)
