and Reagan was 38% behind Carter at this very time in 1980.
Not according to the data I have been seeing. There is a significant and measurable enthusiasm gap between democrat and republican primary voters. Extrapolate the difference in primary numbers against the 2008 election numbers and Trump wins. There is also a large and surprising number of Bernie supporters whose second choice is not Hillary, but Trump. A Bernie vote is not necessarily a vote for socialism but a vote against Hillary, and Trump will win a sigificant portion of Bernie voters in the general. All the GOPe has to do is shut up.
