I suspect things are going to get even better for Secretary Clinton once the effects of her strong debate performance and datatheftgate are realized in the polls.

1. Seems Bernie folks are hard at work spreading

the BS about Hillary this morning.

In all these polls there is no room for Bernie to get more support. There are less than 20% not in one of the three camps. If Bernie got all of that he still would not be in the lead.

[Agschmid]

2. Yup.

[DCBob]

3. In fact Hillary is padding her lead.

Bernie has a a sizable following but its just not enough make a real challenge.

9. Bernie's done

in the real world.

The Bernie Underground is delusional.

[KittyWampus]

14. they are also handing bogus alerts out like candy….

so you might want to rethink the word "delusional".

[Cha]

24. I hear ya, Kitty..

For all the bogus hides.

[Agschmid]

16. They are already starting to move off site.

I think they know he most likely won't be the nominee.

[Alfresco]

22. Yes, I believe you are right. Some will stay till the bitter end.

4. Loving the upward trend for Hillary!

[Alfresco]

5. And reality rears it's beautiful head. Thanks so much for that.

She is the force to destroy the jack booted radicals on the other side. You know, the GOP?

6. Hillary's performance Saturday night reinforced that trend. nt

8. Bernie staffers hurt Bernie

he was put into a position of having to make a very public apology.......with staff like that, who needs enemies?

[workinclasszero]

10. No kidding

Did Bernie sack all the thieves on his staff yet? Or just the one scapegoat?

[enid602]

26. delay

Given the delay, I'm wondering if one might be a relative.

[SunSeeker]

11. He didn't help himself by suggesting his own data was stolen too.

Just made his apology seem forced (which it was, by the moderator) and disingenuous. All he did was feed the unhinged CTs among some of his supporters.

[Sheepshank]

12. I think had Bernie known about this problem in October or even when the most recent breach occurred

and he was given the opportunity to nip this in the bud days before the debate...talked openly, firing the right people and apologizing and making assurances right then and there, this may have played out much differently.

But now that there is so much info floating around about the importance of the data that was purloined, I think perhpas even an apology would no longer fix this issue.

Again, his employees just sunk any chance he had.

28. I blame Weaver.

I think Weaver has kept Sanders mostly inoculated from faux controversy. The BLM thing, I think, is an example of this. I don't think anyone told Sanders it was blowing the fuck up in social media. I think if Sanders knew the extent to which the hate permeated on that issue he would've nipped it in the bud real quick (but it wouldn't have had an effect on the hatemongers).

If Weaver didn't keep it from Sanders he would have personally fired everyone responsible, he would've called up the DNC and said that it was bullshit and apologized. But instead he was coaxed to say that crap about how anyones data could have been stolen, etc.

Staffers fuck up and do really stupid shit sometimes, it wasn't that big of a deal, until it turned into some sort of convoluted logic thing and Weaver decided to unwisely sue the DNC.

[Sheepshank]

29. I agree...Weaver will never work in this line of work again.

we are not the only ones thinking he is at the bottom of all of this. His blustering and posturing to the media simply comes across and defensive and a cover up.

7. K&R

13. I've been saying for weeks that Sanders has plateaued

There is nothing left for him to pick up. And minds are pretty much set now.

[KittyWampus]

17. Unfortunately, all that's left for some of them is a scorched earth strategy.

And it's sad to see it gearing up.

[Gman]

19. And it's more about anger and

Less about Sanders winning than anything.

[KittyWampus]

20. you're probably spot on.

[KittyWampus]

15. Martin O'Malley just can't get any traction. Frustrating.

[Gamecock Lefty]

18. I noticed . . .

as soon as the debate was over Bernistas take to the airways to declare their candidate the winner when the opposite has been true for all three debates so far.

Debate #1, #2, #3, the Benghazi hearings - Hillary is looking stronger and stronger and is solidifying her base. We are coming home to roost!

And only Bernie supporters can twist stolen data into a blame on the Hillary campaign and the DNC. And now they're whining about it being on a Saturday night. So much for debating anywhere, anytime, huh? Bernie's staff reminds me of the kid that got caught with his hand in the cookie jar. "Well if you had a lock on the jar I wouldn't be stealing a cookie!"

Pour it on, Hillary!!

21. Huffpost does a great job with these polling charts.

[Alfresco]

23. Worth another look - Kick

[Cha]

25. this is Awesome, DCBob.. it's reflecting reality!

[MrWendel]

27. Waiting for...

Huffpo is untrustworthy/small sample size/ etc excuses.

[Alfresco]

30. Bernie's Got the Christmas Blues

Happy Holidays!

[Cha]

31. Yep!
