New SC Poll: Clinton: 64% Bernie: 14%

[WI_DEM]

Now we know why Bernie is packing it up in SC:

CLEMSON, South Carolina — Hillary Clinton will win Saturday’s South Carolina Democratic primary by a wide margin, according to the results of the latest Clemson University Palmetto Poll.

The survey of likely voters showed 64 percent said they will vote for Clinton and 14 percent for Bernie Sanders. Twenty-two percent said they are undecided. The margin of error is plus or minus 3 percent.

The telephone poll of 650 likely voters was taken between Saturday and Thursday. The Palmetto Poll respondents were those who said they plan to vote in this election and have voted in two of the last three statewide primaries.

The Palmetto Poll results show she will do better in South Carolina than in any other state.

“After a razor-thin victory by Clinton in the Iowa caucuses, a blowout by Sanders in the New Hampshire primary and a small victory margin by Clinton in the Nevada caucuses, Clinton is perched on the cusp of her own significant primary victory in the Palmetto State,” said Bruce Ransom, a Clemson political science professor and c-director of the poll.

2. Do we all understand what a HUGE victory this is gonna be for Hillary!?

YUUUUGE!!!!

[vdogg]

3. This is gonna be a bloodbath

4. That's very unlikely.

Hillary having 64, absolutely -- she probably has more than that. But Bernie having only 14? That's gotta be an outlier. Also, Clemson is very much a new kid on the block when it comes to polling.

Not that I would complain.

11. It probably will be 65-35 in my opinion, which is still a huge victory

and bigger than Bernie's in NH.

[Chichiri]

15. Sounds about right, maybe a tiny bit more for Hillary. nt

5. So...what will the Sanders meme be?

He pulled out! It doesn't count!

They won't support us in the GE anyway! They don't matter!

[workinclasszero]

9. I'm gonna go with...MSM and voting machines chicanery

Plus if Bernie only gets whipped by 20% its a victory cause he came up from a 30% drubbing

6. Can an entire state

fit under a bus?

[workinclasszero]

7. Too late they already put the entire south under the bus

a couple of days ago.

[Treant]

16. True.

So did Sanders when he abandoned it.

I still think Clinton should hit him hard in Massachusetts to take that away (and Oklahoma), but maybe her campaign has other plans. However, I guarantee she'll put in a token effort and at least send secondary resources (like Big Dog) to the state.

17. I always said the man was a regional candidate only

By writing off the entire south, Bernie proved it!

8. OMG!

[workinclasszero]

10. Put this on GDP...if you dare

Understand if you don't.

[WI_DEM]

12. Already have!

[workinclasszero]

18. Awesome!

Got to get the good news out to the hinterlands..GDP

14. This probably explains why we're seeing so many newcomers in the once obscure AA Group.

They just won't be convinced that many of us like Hillary more than BS. And just for the record, as adults, we don't have to explain it to anyone else's satisfaction. If I want to vote for Hillary because I like her hair color more than BS', it's my right as an American. I don't take kindly to lecturing, cuz I'll do the exact opposite every time.
