I have enormous respect for Senator Sanders and I think his message reflects the truth of what is happening in our country. That said, despite some clinks in the Clinton armor, she is a skilled executive with the know how and experience to fight the treacherous GOP. Bernie has high approvals today, but the GOP has not even begun to smear him as a socialist, communist, marxist, etc. of which is mostly not true but they will easily sell and scare the low information voters across this country. Let’s not kid oursevles, most voters are low information. I also think Clinton has the foriegn policy expertise needed among world leaders she already knows. There may things we can all criticize her for, but she is the best qualified candidate in both parties by far. I hope should she get the Party nomination that Sanders realizing any Democrat is far superior to any Repuclican and will forcefully support her and get his supporters to see that supporting her is the best course for the nation. I do think that part of lower turnout right now during the primaries is in part to the fact that a lot of people would be comfortable voting for either one of these candidates and is not that concerned with which one.

People seem to like a winner. That’s Trump’s trump card for the GOP. As long as HIS face is everywhere–like some third rate commie dictator’s–he LOOKS like a winner.

Clinton supporters are so gracious. I’m sure they will win over many to her cause.

These head to head numbers look amazing for Clinton, but the sampling seems way over the top for dems doesn’t it?

Page 16: 45% dem, 31% republican, 14% indep, and 10% none/don’t know.

If the country identified this way I’d say this was good, but I doubt that this is an accurate picture of the party demographics.

I think the reality of Trump has made a lot of people think in very practical terms.
