I think this is similar to the Hillary/Obama runoff...in reverse

[Ann Archy]

An old, cranky, disheveled, Socialist, atheist Jew from New York originally.....why wouldn’t we ALL vote for Bernie??

[econjack]

...he's simply unelectable on a national stage.

Good grief! Don't tell me even the Dems see this! The really great bit of obvious news here is that an "unelectable" liberal is actually ahead of Clinton in some polls! How beautiful is that?

[DouglasKC]

This is bugging me..since Sanders is NOT a democrat isn’t he really a 3rd party candidate? It would be good to have him in the race to split the dem vote correct?

[Zuben Elgenubi]

Paging Fauxcahontas.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Clinton is a liar and a crook so I wouldn’t be so sure.

Trump vs Sanders is "unelectable"? hillary vs Jeb is "electable"?

I'll go with Trump vs Sanders, any day, and let's have an honest clash of ideas, with the DC crowd and their paymasters out of it. Our ideas would prevail. The discussion is the best thing that could happen in US politics.

[Little Ray]

Geez, I hope so.
It is bad enough to have a crypto-Commie in the White House. But someone who actually openly ran on Communist principles?
Unfortunately, I am not nearly as confident of that as “Democrats” seem to be.

[windsorknot]

Sorry, but Bernie Sanders isn’t that far left of the modern Democrat Party.

[Tallguy]

“Feel the Bern”, Democrats! LOL!

[Jim Noble]

It's interesting that the powers that be keep saying that Trump and Sanders are "unelectable". It's the mirror image of the "Jeb and Hillary are inevitable" dialog.

It tells you a lot about where we are, and about who is really in charge, that the two candidates who nobody wants are the two that are inevitable.

[Tupelo]

I figure Sanders will awake some morning to find a horse head on the pillow next to him and announce that he has decided, he would be more affective helping America’s poor and downtrodden as a member of the Senate.
Or something.

[MSF BU]

The same thing was said about Reagan.

[Eccl 10:2]

"Simply unelectable !"

[Thumper1960]

The clear fact is, Bernie Sanders' socialist agenda IS THE AGENDA OF THE DEMONCRAT PARTY! PERIOD!

By their own words, many of those quoted being members of the so-called "Progressive Caucus", allied with the Democratic Socialists of America. They know Sanders would have a tough time getting elected. They'd prefer to finish their coup from the shadows and not foist a naked hard core leftist as their standard bearer, just yet.

[Mariner]

Who knows?

Maybe we'll have Sanders and Trump in the General.

They'd both be unelectable.

[Pollster1]

Why would they say that a socialist is unelectable? The Democrat fraud machine proved in 2008 and in 2012 that a socialist can have the most votes - after their people do the counting.
