Poll: Sanders surges to 10-point Iowa lead
The Hill ^ | 9/13/15 | Bradford Richardson

Posted on 09/14/2015 3:44:17 AM PDT by markomalley

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is up by double-digits on former secretary of State Hillary Clinton in Iowa and New Hampshire, according to a poll released by CBS News on Sunday.

The senator is drawing 43 percent support in the first-in-the-nation Iowa caucus, besting Clinton by 10 points.

Sanders is also drawing 52 percent support in New Hampshire, almost doubling Clinton, who sits at 30 percent support in the Granite State.

Clinton, however, doubles-up Sanders in South Carolina, drawing 46 percent compared to the senator’s 23 percent.

Vice President Biden, who is considering a run for the Democratic presidential nomination, places third in all three states, drawing 10 percent support in Iowa, 9 percent support in New Hampshire, and a strong 22 percent backing in South Carolina.

The YouGov/CBS News 2016 Battleground Tracker poll, conducted Sept. 3 – 10, surveyed 548 likely Democratic primary voters in New Hampshire, 528 in South Carolina, and 646 in Iowa. The margin of error for the poll is 5 percent.

It’s not cynical to predict the future from an understanding of history. ;-)

In before the “For personal health reasons” speech...if sanders gets a chance. Hillary absolutely wants to promote him to “good socialist” status.

The last thing we need is another socialist president.

However, I respect Bernie much more than I do Bush or Hillary simply because he’s honest. The old boy is a die hard socialist, admits to it, is proud of it, and campaigning as one. Even though I’d never want his kind as President, I’d trust his word as President more than a weaseling RINO or a lying democrat simply because he is more honest.

But doesn’t all this prove just how unfit Hillary is to be President?

I mean, everything was stacked her way, the Dem Party moved any serious competitors out of the way, she has media sympathisers and apologists, the NY Times, CNN, and others are all in her pocket .... ans STILL she botches it!!

If she can’t handle this, how the h is she gonna be able to handle something as complicated as the Presidency, where a lot of things are stacked against you?

Hillary never really had any political talent, she’s just a ladder-climbing amateur who was foisted on the country by the Bill-loving media, and she lucked out in that NY Senate race. She’s so amateurish she’s now getting clobbered by a no-name washed-up communist!!

Democratic Party 2015, the REAL clown show

Honestly, what does this say about the defective liberals who would attend and openly support an avowed communist? This is a direct result of school’s and especially colleges and the cronyism and constant drumming of “ya gotta go to college”...”ya gotta go to college”...pathetic mind numb college pukes can’t even realize the historic and constant failure and misery of a communistic society even though it is in text books and recorded again and again and again....what the fk is wrong with these dolts? They despise having to be self-sufficient so much that they want the government who even today fleece’s their money to garner more of it and continue the destruction of our constitutional republic?

Eight years ago she was clobbered by a no-name community organizer.

She has no achievements of her own. Always riding the coattails of her husband. In 2000, the senate seat in New York was handed to her as a parting gift when Bill left office. Even then, another no-name (Rick Lazio) gave her a good fight in one of the most bluest states in the nation. Then she proceeded to park herself in that senate seat like some old lady on a crowded bus. Did she do anything at all in that senate seat? Anything?

May the Beast die a long, slow, painful and humiliating political death.

IMO that would be nearly as good as putting her in the prison cell she so richly deserves.
Denied the power and the perks of power by her own political ineptitude.

That’s hilarious.

At least until I stop and think about the spiritual, mental, and political condition of that segment of my home state who will follow an avowed socialist.

Then it’s sobering.

Why yes, she did. She voted for the invasion of Iraq. ;)

Well, it certainly tells you everything you need to know about the base.

Moving one's vote from Clinton to Sanders isn't a sign of any awakening, more like a desperate toke session.
