The WaPo-ABC poll, taken as the Clinton campaign set about its latest reset, shows her trajectory continuing to spiral downward. Leading 42 percent to Sander’s 24 percent among Democratic and Democrat-leaning voters, Clinton has seen a drop in support of 21 points since July, while Sanders has picked up 10 points. “She has lost ground with most demographic groups, but the sharpest drop has come among women and particularly white women,” [the poll says]. “In July, 64 percent of white women said they supported Clinton; today, it is 31 percent, the same level of backing as Sanders, whose support has doubled among this group.”

1. Women are smarter. n/t

2. Comes down to one word: "Authenticity"

that very one thing you can't fake

3. "here's the binder on authenticity--it's been thoroughly focus-grouped and vetted;

authenticity dress rehearsal at 9 sharp, and in the afternoon we'll call our donors and reassure them that any authenticity won't ever go so far as to hurt their current interests in the American economy"

4. Yep, Bernie's honesty shines through. nt

6. Exactly!

Authenticity creates trust.

Now let's turn this country upside down...

Bernie & Elizabeth

Take 99% of America back and give it to the people.

5. Obviously there's a lot of self hating women out there....

7. I believe that Biden wants into this race--if he thinks he can win.

I also believe that what is going on now is not indecision or soul-searching, but research and discussions with potential donors, super delegates, etc.

Until Biden says definitely if he's going to the prom, I won't know what to make of polls. Also, after January 1, polls will be riveting. Now, they're fun.

That said, Go Bernie!

Also, that is a rather startling error for a headline. Unless the points had been imprisoned and Hillary set them free, the headline should have begun "Hillary loses 33 points." (The website made the error, not the awesome OP.)

10. So right didn't notice!

8. LOL!

I've yet to see a hard-nosed analysis showing how Sanders can win the support of women, blacks and Latinos.

And Hillary is authentically adaptive, unlike Sanders. And she has a grass-roots following among bankers.

9. You always go straight to the heart of an issue, Manny.
