re: #115 Targetpractice

So I count two red states, one of them arguably “Deep South,” and all of these no doubt taken days to weeks before SC, if not NV.

Seems the same sort of wishful thinking that they told themselves after NV: “Yeah, the polls say she’ll run away with SC, but they said the same thing in ‘08 and Obama won!”

The Colorado poll comes from the same GOP pollster who showed a Nevada tie (and remember, told Romney he was winning right up to Election Day). The Ohio poll is also from Republicans and contradicts all other polls out (Quinnipiac shows a 15-point Clinton lead). Clinton is gaining fast in Massachusetts (8-point lead in the Suffolk poll out today). I know nothing about the Maine poll, and Vermont is obviously Bernie defending his house (as Maine is, and which Massachusetts should be but isn’t).

Alaska doesn’t vote until March 26, and West Virginia until May 10. I doubt Sanders will be viable by even the Alaska caucuses.
