CBS/New York Times poll: Hillary Clinton continues to lead Democratic field


http://www.cbsnews.com/news/cbs-nyt-poll-hillary-clinton-continues-to-lead-democratic-field/


By Anthony Salvanto, Jennifer De Pinto, Sarah Dutton and Fred Backus

Hillary Clinton continues to lead Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders by 20 points: She receives 52 percent of Democratic primary voters' support, while Sanders gets 32 percent. Just 2 percent support former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley.

Clinton leads among many voter groups - men, women, liberals, moderates, non-whites and voters over age 45. But Sanders performs better with voters under 45 and independents.


Handling the Issues

Clinton has an advantage over Sanders on two important issues: more Democratic primary voters are very confident in Clinton's (81 percent) than in Sanders' (65 percent) ability to handle the economy and terrorism...........

Which is your favorite photo from #HillaryInNH tonight?

1. This is interesting

I trust him more on economy, but trust her more on protecting us. Can we have both?

[Amimnoch]

3. Don't feed into the hyperbole.

During the 8 years of her husbands Presidency, we experienced a surplus budget, huge job growth, and the economy that was foundering post Reagan/Bush Sr was turned around and a HUGE success.

It took another Bush to come in and ruin that momentum in short order.

[riversedge]

6. And I know that Hillary will carrry through with her proposals for the economy.

[thesquanderer]

37. One can think that HRC would be good for the economy, but BS would be better.

Also, it is a tricky line to walk, to associate HRC with her husband's successes but then try to avoid associating her with his less popular positions.

[Amimnoch]

2. Glad so many others see what a wonderful President she could be.

Here's to the hope of 8 more years of progress after President Obama!

[JaneyVee]

4. K AND R! Good for the economy and NatSec.

[NurseJackie]

5. Fuschia is her color. It's very flattering.

Or would you call that magenta?

(Kick!)

[riversedge]

7. I was thinking Fuschia but have to admit

I wondered after you asked but have always thought magenta as a darker pink-purple.


Eeeks

On the RGB color wheel, magenta is the color between rose and violet, and halfway between red and blue. This color is called magenta in X11 and fuchsia in HTML. In the RGB color model, it is created by combining equal intensities of red and blue light.

[Laser102]

9. I think it makes her look younger. I should try it. LOL

[riversedge]

13. Why not.....

but it is style also. Makes her look great--and it is not trivial. Peoples first impressions of anyone matter--IMHO

[cosmicone]

8. I was going to say the same thing! n/t

[Hiraeth]

10. bwahahahaha .... that "R" is -so- telling. you have no idea.

I just snorted coffee out my nose. Thanks.

[riversedge]

11. That is what you get for low thinking.

[Hiraeth]

15. You post. I laugh. Do it again!

[MoonRiver]

22. I get text messages that say things like: R U there yet?

And, how surprising, they come from my Democratic family and friends! Who knew they were closet (R)epublicans!

[Hiraeth]

40. let me be Frank - always did like that song

[MoonRiver]

45. He had a beautiful voice!

But I would love it if my favorite Italian restaurant would play something but Sinatra, just once, pretty please. .

[NurseJackie]

16. I think it "tells" more about the reader (or their motives) than the writer.

Your meaning in the OP's title is obvious. The reader's attempt to interpret it as "telling" falls flat.

It's described as another one of those mysterious "telling" moments, but as per usual, they never quite get there. What exactly is it supposed to "tell"? We never know, and they never say. Why?

Do they not elaborate because they know that to do so would put them at risk of having a hidden post? Or, do they not get too specific because they actually lack specifics? Or, do they remain vague so that they can create the illusion of being a part of some "inside-joke" or that only the "right-people" are privy to?

Not that it matters. But it's fun to watch.

[Hiraeth]

18. and your cover is still safe with me

you guys!

[NurseJackie]

24. LOL :-)

The "I've-got-a-secret" style of posting must be a thing that's becoming popular. It certainly makes it easy to make a "point" without actually stating what the point is. (Ergo, it's easy to defend when there's nothing to defend, or to give the appearance of being "in-the-know" or to have some deep understanding of a topic.)

It also makes it easy to make an accusation or insult without actually doing so. (Again, such things are not subject to being hidden because no insult was actually spoken.)

Not really big deal... but interesting to see how it seems to be catching on.

[Hiraeth]

39. so easy. Nurses for Bernie !! there now. out in the open. good to see you laughing.

[NurseJackie]

42. Your secret is safe with me, Hiraeth.

[NCTraveler]

17. There is a conspiracy under every rock.

Then again, some people claimed to be "confused" by the logo. lol. It's getting more and more funny by the day.

[Hiraeth]

19. I don't know about conspiracy. Headline at it's low finest is all. Silly me.

[NCTraveler]

20. "Headline at it's low finest is all. " lol considering your "observation." nt.

[Hiraeth]

36. good lord. you guys. all tore up about a little fruedian slip. get over yourselves.

[NCTraveler]

38. No idea what you R talking about. lol. This is great.

Conspiracies everywhere!!!!!!!

[Hiraeth]

41. IKR

[NCTraveler]

44. Busted!!!!! You used an upper case R!!!! It tells me everything!!!! lol.

Shit. I turned over a rock and look what was there.

[workinclasszero]

12. Bernie's campaign stumbled badly

on foreign policy and terrorism. His people tell the press not to ask questions about it.

What are they thinking?

[Alfresco]

14. Hillary Clinton - The Most Qualified Candidate For President In Our Lifetime

[SmittynMo]

21. WOW

You need to read up on ALL the democratic candidates.

[Alfresco]

29. I am very well read thank you.

If you take the Bernie blinders off you would come to the same conclusion.
Have a Wonderful Day.

[riversedge]

25. Well said....

In solidarity!




Harrell Kirstein ‏@HarrellKirstein Dec 3

There is a lot of energy in Dover this evening for #HillaryInNH. #Nhpolitics

[Martin Eden]

32. HRC is very Unqualified in matters of national security

The rise of ISIS is the direct result of our extremely ill-advised invasion & occupation of Iraq, which Hillary voted for.

Bernie Sanders showed far superior judgment in this matter.

[Alfresco]

43. The voters in the Democratic primary will ultimately decide qualifications.

I have every confidence it will be Hillary Clinton and she will eventually become our 45th President.
Good Day.

[Martin Eden]

48. That's impossible

Qualifications are what they are, regardless of the voters. Just look at polls of Republican voters; if you go by that, Donald Trump is the most qualified candidate among the GOP hopefuls. Based on experience and positions held at high levels of government, Dick Cheney was among the most qualified Vice Presidents in history.

Actual record and policy is what matters.

Of course Democrtaic voters are not Republicans and Hillary Clinton is not Dick Cheney, but the voting public in general (including Dems/independents) are not all well informed and fully engaged with the issues and records of the candidates.

Who showed better judgment in the run-up to war in Iraq -- Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders?

[Alfresco]

49. I can understand your frustration.

Bernie's revolution is not doing so well. Everything is going to be fine. I promise.
Have a Donut.

[Martin Eden]

50. You understand jack

(and my name isn't Jack)

I understand you either can't or won't address the substance of the issue I raised.

I couldn't care less about Bernie Sanders or Hillary Clinton personally, but I care a great deal about the future of our country.

What's hard to understand is why so many Democratic voters don't seem to care about the perpetual war that drains our treasury and recruits terrorists, or about the stranglehold the big money Wall Street players have on our economy.

[SoapBox]

23. Well I'm one Primary voter that has zero confidence in her

other than she would embroil us in more endless involvement in crap that other countries need to be dealing with.

Her sabre rattling and War Hawk stance, combined with her complete and total dedication to big money, big power, Banksters and Billionaires is an offense to millions of us.

I have no trust or confidence in her at all.

[AgingAmerican]

26. Too many right wing OPs on these two subjects from her supporters

Don't even have to read between the lines anymore. Lately they have been going full Monte.

[RoccoR5955]

27. You got dat right! n/t

[yardwork]

31. How is this a right wing OP?

[AgingAmerican]

46. Her supporters are posting right wing OPs on these two subjects

Moving further and further rightward. Taking up GOP positions. We see where this is headed.

[FloridaBlues]

28. Staying strong for Hillary! Bernie still stuck in low 30's.

[Iliyah]

30. Well after a police union in NH endorsed a bigot and apparently taking selfies

I trust the NH Democrats to bring NH to a win for HRC.

Go Hillary!

[comradebillyboy]

47. That's about the only union that hasn't

endorsed Hillary

[modestybl]

33. I always contended she should run as a Republican....

... and Sanders has been running consistently better than HRC in polls against Repubs... the country needs HRC to join the Repubs...

[Thinkingabout]

51. Sanders is with the Republicans on gun issues and others issues, in fact Sanders has been

brought back to the left in the debates with MOM and Hillary on the gun issue.

[modestybl]

52. UNTRUE. ... has been consistent with gun policy...

Sanders represents his VOTERS a donor class... and has been consistent on gun policy for years... as early as 1990 being for an assault rifle ban.. even voting against the overwhelming wishes of his constituents on occasion... go beyond talking points:

http://www.salon.com/2015/10/10/what_bernies_gun_control_critics_get_wrong_partner/

HRC pulling Sanders to the right? What a joke. She is a political windsock... last time around she was Annie Oakley:

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/04/12/clinton-touts-her-experience-with-guns/

With a D- rating from the NRA, Sanders is not with the Repubs on that issue, or any other issue. Really, HRC supporters have NOTHING... but their candidate has the backing of Wall Street.

[Thinkingabout]

53. He voted five times against the Brady Bill, he voted to give immunity to manufacturers,

And dealers, this is not left wing standings on this issue. He is getting pulled left recently because of MOM and HRC stands on gun issues. It is his voting record.

[modestybl]

55. Twenty two years ago, and listening to his CONSTITUENTS...

... in a state of high gun ownership levels. He also argued that some restrictions should be at the state level, not the Federal level.

Gun manufacturers don't have "blanket immunity", but the liability that was in that gun control legislation would have unfairly penalized gun store owners - also part of Sanders constituency. Not to mention, many legal experts have determined that the courts would rule against a

But Sanders has favored for years federal legislation banning straw man sales and penalizing gun dealers that knowingly cooperate in those..

I understand that HRC supporters are desperate to exploit anything they can against Sanders... and that's the only thing they can come up with...

[Thinkingabout]

57. He can give all the excuses he wants to give. His no vote is what the

NRA wanted and the Republicans wants. I have not seen the same excuse accepted by many on HRC vote on IWR, it was families of many who were killed who was HRC constituents. She has explained her vote and apologized for the vote, Sanders continues to say he comes from a rural state, maybe he does not know there are ma y other states which has large rural areas. No, I do not give him a pass on the way he has voted on gun issues.

[modestybl]

59. HRC NEVER apologized for that vote...

...she merely came up with a reversal and claimed that she "acted in good faith" .... after seeing the intelligence reports. The reports that lead many of her colleagues to vote against. HRC is not stupid. She wasn't "wrong" ... she was calculating.

She IGNORED her constituents in the run up to that vote.

No one is asking anyone to give Sanders a pass on anything... and I don't agree with all of his positions, but I see where he comes from. You obviously disagree.

But my fundamental problem with HRC is not only her horrific judgement, including her recommendation for military intervention in Libya, but her fundamental dishonesty. We will be paying for the Iraq War for decades, a million dead Iraqis, hundreds of thousands of dead or injured Americans. And she has shown no sign that she has learned anything.

[modestybl]

56. BTW... why did HRC accept the endorsement of Heidi Heitkamp with an A rating...

...from the NRA?

[Thinkingabout]

58. Now, really tell me how Hillary can control how someone votes who endorses her.

Every voter can choose who they vote.

[EndElectoral]

34. This unpolled Primary voter is NOT very confident in her abiilty to handle the economy or terrorism

[FairWinds]

35. It's very hard to tell, but this thread is for . .

Hillary worship only.

If you criticize HRC's positions or policies,

you will get flicked.

[Cha]

54. KICK!
