[Bakersfield Uber Alles]

Excellent news for Sanders.

[Green Line]

So sanders has higher unfavorables than Clinton despite her having almost universal name recognition. Momentum indeed!

[Cubby]

If you scroll way, way, way down to page 76, they ask "Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of  Donald Trump's hair?"

I can't believe they asked that!

The results were 12% Favorable/49% Unfavorable/39% Not Sure

It looks like most people resented being asked. There's no way a majority of Americans don't think his hair is ridiculous, but they like to pretend otherwise.

On a more serious serious note, I was surprised at the high disapproval numbers for all candidates, but glad to see Hillary beating all of the GOP ones. Sanders beating Trump by 10 points was the icing on the cake. 

Hillary beats Walker and Bush by 5 points, but Walker beats Sanders by 1 point and Bush beats him by a sobering 7 points. Decisions, decisions.......

But look the unfavorables of the other three; voters tend to dislike politicians they haven't heard of.

[Tender Branson]

Best score yet for Sanders in a national poll ...

[Figueira]

Chafee is the 2nd choice of Webb and O'Malley voters.

LOL

[Mr. Morden]

Chafee is the 2nd choice of Webb and O'Malley voters.

LOL

Don't laugh.  If Webb and O'Malley drop out, Chafee might have a shot at winning one delegate.

[Mr. Morden]

In any case, 42/26 means that Sanders is near 70% name recognition among Dems.  There's only so much more room for him to grow just from expanding name recognition, as opposed to winning over current Clinton supporters who already know who he is.

The funny thing is, if you compare Sanders to must of the Republicans, he usually has better fav/unfav within Dems than may of the Pubs do. But for the GOP candidates, it is just somehow taken for granted that they will be unpopular. Double standard. If they are legitimate candidates, then he clearly is as well.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

With more and more females stepping in Congressional races, women in primaries, of presidential level, especially in NH will step up and vote for Hilary.

Thats not Sanders fault.

Nah, he had 23% and 24% respectively in two others polls. Hell, you probably posted them on here.

Trump is an actual serious and legitimate candidate. I basically disagree with everything he's uttered this far, and very, very strongly as well, yet at least those are sincere political opinions (although I don't believe for a second that Trump actually believes personally in all the sh**t he's spewing), yet Walker and Cruz are absolute trolls who don't even believe 2.2% of all the craziness they're telling the world. I don't believe Trump is a whole lot better, but still, at least, he believes 10-15-20% of the sh**t he's trying to deliever to his voting base, unlike those assholes Walker and Cruz. It would be an absolute insult to all politicians in every single country not to call Cruz and Walker with the a word. Trump on the other hand doesn't even come close.
