Clinton holds big lead on Sanders in Iowa

And Clinton’s support comes from those who are more likely to participate in the caucuses on Feb. 1, the poll found.

Among those who have participated in past caucuses, Clinton’s lead expands to 27 points.

“The core of this electorate is going to be registered Democrats. And Clinton appears to have that group firmly in her corner,” Monmouth polling director Patrick Murray said.

Furthermore, with only 54 days until voters cast their ballots in the Hawkeye State, there appears to be little room for Sanders to make inroads.

Apparently they aren't backing the guy that spent decades slamming the democratic party and not lifting a finger to help out its members.

Go figure.


Go Hillary!

HE'S NOT A DEMOCRAT! He's just using the party apparatus. And his acolytes wonder why we all don't just jump on the Bernie bandwagon rather than vote for a woman who has worked HARD for over 30 years within the Democratic party on Democratic issues. Duh.
