Sanders endorsed the guy who called New York "Hymietown"?

The link has an embeded video. I imagine your answers on why are found within.
You'd better believe I'm a bitter Bernie Sanders supporter. The Dems fucked up and fucked up hard. Hopefully they'll learn that neoliberalism and maintaining the status quo isn't the way to win this election or any other one. I doubt they will, though.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

He needs a good showing in FL. Numbers in NC and GA may move up. AR is a dud for him. MI might also move for him. There's time. First is SC. He needs a respectable second at least.

Well, first is Nevada. He should definitely gun for Nevadans. Don't leave them by the wayside and just focus on South Carolina.

Support for Sanders is lowest among younger voters in Georgia? And it's less than half the support given to him by middle-aged voters? I think something might be off.

Wonder if that poll included cell phones.

I've noticed a lot of polls only ring landlines, held predominantly by older voters, and more conservative voters.

Those polls tend to favor hillary 2:1, while those that ring cell phones and landlines still show hillary winning, but by much narrower margins.

I haven't bothered to look into the poll, but since it's one poll (and the first since October), it can only mean so much.

Aka 1/3rd of the state if what I read is accurate. Compared to Iowa which was less than 1/6th of the state coming out, that's pretty impressive.
