NH-Boston Herald: It Happened

[Free Bird]

We all know to not take these polls seriously in August.. any of them.

Sure doesn't seem that way when they're in your favor

[Tender Branson]

No, Icebear and the other Hillary-enablers told me this cannot happen ...

She's inevitable after all.

[Free Bird]

Considering that Sanders is leading Republicans in polling, I don't see why some are excited about this. Granted, I think he could lose due to poor campaigning, but his views don't seem to hurt him in general election polling. If Republicans trail an open socialist, that is not a good sign.

See, people are celebrating in the loosest sense because an actual candidate of substance is doing good and ridding the world of corrupt evil like Hillary

[bobloblaw]

The Sander's surge is for real!
NH, VT, ME, WA, OR, and AK are all possibilities to break away from Clinton.

Id add MN, WI, ND, SD, CO maybe HI and of course IA.

Anywhere where there isnt a large black or latino population, Sanders has a good chance.

[Tender Branson]

Look, Sanders definitely has a chance.

The witch was once defeated by Obama and Sanders is already building a strong momentum accross the US.

The first thing you non-believing guys need to do, is to switch that button in your heads to "Yes, Bernie CAN defeat her". And then he eventually will. In the next months, more and more Democrats and Indys will see the light at the end of that filthy, bloodless tunnel called "Hillary Clinton" and switch over to the "real guy".

And if Sanders actually gets the nomination, he becomes a corrupt evil, so I really don't see what difference it makes. Republicans believe he would be easier to beat, but that isn't necessarily true if he can manage to run a decent campaign.

Does anyone else see the irony of it being New Hampshire?

NH doesn't have the best track record of picking the winner, but that's not a fact that Hillary supporters would be advised to bring up, because she's part of that.

[Mr. Morden]

Who leads among....?

Democrats: Clinton
Independents: Sanders
very liberal: Sanders
somewhat liberal: Clinton

And this was the Huffington Post trend *before* this poll.

[ElectionsGuy]

IceSpear, where are you?

I'm celebrating because I think that Sanders deserves the Democratic nomination more than Hillary does.

[Bakersfield Uber Alles]

LOL Hillary hacks.

And this day shall hence forever be known in the future as Sanders Day.

[Fusionmunster]

For a poll analysis forum you sure are a short sighted group.

[Sprouts Farmers Market ✘]

If he gets the nomination, he'd be completely bullied. If Black Lives Matter could run him off the stage, then you can imagine what the Tea Party will do.

With that said, Sanders isn't going to win the primary. Yes, I said it and if you are offended, I deeply apologize, but I am entitled to an opinion.

Well, 2014 showed you're horrible at predictions (You had Braley, Udall, and I think Begich winning) , so I wouldn't be too confident.

Ooh shots fired!!

Re: Sanders - I'm excited, but I still think he trails by way too much in Iowa to overcome, but perhaps a miracle is coming.

[Mehmentum]

Predictably, Atlas freaks out and completely overreacts.  Sanders was going to lead a NH poll at some point.

[daverep]

Not to put *too* much cold water on this, but...

* It's still 5 months before any states vote/caucus
* No debates have yet been had
* NH is Bernie's backyard

It's a sign of strength that he's been able to get this far but leading this one poll doesn't say a lot. What will happen if Hillary wins IA by solid double digits and Bernie nicks NH by low single digits? There's still 48 states to go, and not many of them similar to the 95%+ white NH (not that Iowa is the model for the nation, but still)

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Sanders will probably make it SUPER Tues. But, he has to have a Southern strategy, he doesnt have one.

As Clinton continues to dominate.

[RedPrometheus]

The vitriolic hate some people here have against HRC is really incredible.

Regarding the poll: Bill Bradley also came close in 2000 to defeat Gore in the NH primary and overall it made no difference for the nomination. We'll have to see what the other polls will say.

[Donerail]

This is a university poll, from a uni that hasn't polled since '08, whose polling institute is led by the guy who used to run UNH, and whose President is currently Andrew Card. Junk uni, junk poll.

Be prepared to be called a hack for Hillary. Any poll that has Hillary trailing to not to be questioned, otherwise you are just being a hack.

You must be logged in to read this quote.

No. It was you Hillary hacks who created the myth that Sanders would lose in a 1972-style landslide while Hillary would wipe the floor with Republicans.

I never made a Sanders comparison to McGovern. If I did, you need to produce the post where I said it. I'm waiting.

Sanders has already been to the South a few times, drawing large crowds. Sanders has a 50-state strategy - he is going to compete (and win) everywhere.

Large crowds =/= electoral success. Obama drew huge crowds in Texas back in 2008 but he still lost the state to Hillary and McCain.
