Hot Take!

It goes back to something I noted downstairs, Bernie has been in Congress for the better part of 20 years. In that time, he’s been a relative unknown, only really became a household name last year. Yet Hillary has had every facet of her life gone over with a fine-toothed comb, has been under scrutiny most of her political life, and has been seen as the anti-Christ by at least half the country for as long as Bernie has been in Congress.

So yes, most of his “electability” right now is based off his being a relative unknown. Once that goes away, you’re gonna see those numbers plummet.
