In one major poll, Bernie Sanders is now leading Hillary Clinton nationally. In most others, he’s not far behind from the former Secretary of State. Vermont’s Senator already has an “edge over Clinton in matchups with GOP opponents,†dispelling Clinton’s electability myth. In an average of national polls, Bernie Sanders is less than eight points from Hillary Clinton, after being over 50 points behind in 2015. In addition, there’s only one person capable of challenging a Republican in 2016 without James Comey declaring national security was jeopardized by a private server.

The only change I would make to the poster is it should say “This isn’t because I’m Conservative. It’s because YOU are an adult.”
Everyone beats Hill /Sanders
FEBRUARY 17, 2016
INDICATIONS an SANITY?: National poll shows entire Republican field can beat both Hillary and Bernie.
Against Hillary:
Trump wins 45% to 43%.
Cruz wins 45-44
Rubio wins 46-42
Against Bernie:
Trump wins 44% to 43%.
Cruz loses 42-44
Rubio wins 46-42
The ads touting a “vote for Trump/Cruz†is a vote for the Democrats are not only offensive to a large segment of GOP voters who support these candidates, but also apparently not supported by current polling data. Apparently each of the top three GOP candidates are capable of beating either Clinton or Sanders. Of course, that’s not necessarily saying much, since Clinton and Sanders are arguably the worst two presidential candidates in recent history.

Gas station sushi FTW.
Good!!
We’ll see. What I take from that is it won’t be a 1972 style blowout as some here are suggesting. It’ll be a hard slog regardless, and Ho Chi Sanders has a pretty fair chance of winning it.
Love it: Ho Chi Sanders. I wonder what % of Freepers even know who you are referencing.
He’ll go with Elizabeth Warren to pull the Hillary voters back into the fold. It’s going to be a dangerous ticket.
Nate Silver is bullish on her chances.
The only way I see Biden and/or Warren coming in is if Hillary wins the nomination and Obama takes her out with an indictment. (Later to be pardoned, of course)
If Bernie wins, I think, there is no way to push him aside in favor of someone not already in the race.
The President is in the catbird seat. Which is in Obama’s best post-presidency interests? Not a Clinton or Sanders presidency, I’m thinking.
Anyone CAN defeat the gop. It’s been proven the last two elections.
I registered as a Democrat and voted for Obama in 2008 because he couldn’t win.
Hitlery Is Melting!
Now Salon wants to dump her.
That’s the final insult.
lololll until Donald Trump reminds the country that his success would not be possible with Bolshevik Sanders in charge; nor would the jobs Trump creates exist either. Sanders would do bad electorally on a level not seen since Dukakis.
Probably a pretty small percentage. Anyone less than say 55 years old wouldn’t get it.
I love starting buzzwords in any case. Ho Chi Sanders or Bolshevik Bernie.
Ho Chi Sanders or Bolshevik Bernie.
BOL of course most under 30’s would not understand the obvious code.
I don’t want either. I want to win and she is more beartable than he is.
And don’t forget Martin O’Malley: “We need to police the police. I will police the police.”
Anyone who is so ignorant of history that he does not get that reference should not be posting on a blog named “Free Republic”!
