CBS Evening News - 'Sanders Ahead 22 Points in state Clinton won in 2008' and Backed by More Women




Network news report on Republican and Democratic primary races. Clip shows how Sanders is beating Clinton by 22 Points, in state Clinton won in 2008. Clip also shows Clinton talking politics and the media from the pulpit in a Church, saying she apparently needs to be nicer to the press.

The major difference in every state, reports Julianna Goldman, is enthusiasm. Bernie Sanders is generating it -- Hillary Clinton is not.



________

So apparently the reason for this difference in poll numbers is Clinton is not being nice enough to the press?

She told Ellen how she would have to settle for 'domestic partnership' because she didn't believe in marriage for gay citizens.

I think she needs to stay away from such circumstances until she has caught up with today's society. Of course Sanders was always WAY ahead of the curve on these and other issues, but so much for facts.

It is not the first time conventional wisdom has been wrong.

Or whatever nonsense that used past data rooted almost entirely in name recognition.
