A just released CNN poll finds Bernie Sanders out-polling all of the
GOP's major candidates, though pretty much tied with Jeb Bush. Here's
how Sanders stacks up:

SANDERS: 48%
BUSH: 47%

SANDERS: 48%
WALKER: 42%

SANDERS: 59%
TRUMP: 38%

If you limit the poll sample to just registered voters, Bush defeats
Sanders by a single point. Either way, this credible poll suggests that
Sanders is not just some pie-in-the-sky general election candidate. His
more uphill battle may be the primary. But even there, he has some
strengths. Polling out last week shows he's the only candidate from
either side who has a net favorability rating.

For the Republicans, too, the race is being turned upside down.
Celebrity billionaire Donald Trump is now beating his rivals in national
polls; the CNN poll has him at 18 percent to Jeb Bush's 15 percent. In
state polling, Trump is the leader in New Hampshire in the Marist poll,
at 21 percent, with Jeb Bush at only 14 percent. In Iowa, Trump is at 17
percent and Scott Walker is at 19 percent.

I love this. I don't believe Sanders has a chance to capture the
nomination, but...he's a terrific guy and a great United States Senator,
and certainly would do a better job for the majority of people in this
country than any of the Republican mooks.


Well dirty Harry. You seem to be intrigued with polls. If you were smart
you would realize that all polls are contrived to predict the outcomes
pollsters desire. You're better off betting the Las Vegas odds makers.
