Just wanted to post something after all of the hyperventilating from Quinnipiac's debunked polls.

I wouldn't worry much about polls at the moment. Wait until next year when we'll know who'll be nominated or not. It's too soon to question who's more popular or not.

2016 is not 1992.  Also, the previous poster said it right.  The polls right now are virtually meaningless.  I mean, nobody seriously believes the Donald has a legitimate shot at the Republican nomination do they?  He's leading in the polls now, but he's going to flame out eventually if he or his aides keep making insensitive remarks.

Their "reporters" and snarkers aren't so fond of her. The data nerds are just telling it like it is.

True.  Though it cuts both ways.  Her leads over Bush, Walker, etc. don't mean that much either.

Well, it kind of kills the argument that she's more electable in the general election when Sanders has better favorables. And the US is lot more partisan than 1992, so less room to move there.
