If they break into factions, we likely would too. Maybe it should have happened a long time ago. It would be nice not to have to count on the FBI to prevent having to make the non-choice of Trump or Clinton in November.

and the person interviewed indicated that he thought it would be a re-alignment of the parties which he said happens about every 50 or 60 years if I recall correctly. I don't see the parties dissolving, but this view may be correct that we are seeing a significant change within the parities. We will see.

Families in the South that had always been Democrats decided to become Republicans. It was a major re-alignment.

and he decides to go independent and thus splits the Republican vote...

Maybe Bernie should go back to being independent too, and running as such.

A four way race, not only to determine the President, but to also establish the direction of the political parties in the future.

BTW...Bernie would probably win in a landslide, if the trend continues of Clinton support dropping and Sanders climbing.

... saying we must vote for Bernie because SCOTUS, right?

That's how this works.

It's a fact. He does. Hillary will lose in a general. Many people will never vote for her.

We got those unreliable, secret black box voting machines that can't count accurately. Even if every person in TN voted for a Democrat, the machines would make sure it counted as a win for RepubliCONS. The voting machines are rigged by and for RepubliCONS and have been rigged for years.

She'd get crushed by a McCain or Romney

a lot of Independents, Republicans, and #BernieOrBust people will never vote for her. If it's Clinton vs. any Republican, we may see an interesting Electoral College decision.

I asked about Bernie and she said, "All he does is yell."

Choosing which STD you want.

Okay--I'll try it.

not, and folks opinions hardened long ago.

Bernie, ironically, is a "fresh face" AND when people learn more about his positions, they agree, and sound interested in looking deeper into his youth-fired candidacy.

More than 90% of the people don't care or believe what she says.

…for putting the country, the election and the Democratic Party in such jeopardy. What dangerous, egotistical incompetence it's been to insist on a coronation.

I'd really like to know how her supporters think she'll ever get anything done——which is her big selling point. When she is despised by the Repubs (Bernie is not) and when she has half the country totally exhausted and distrustful of the Clintons. She will have an embattled Presidency. How does this help the country? We can't afford another 4 years of Clinton drama.

And it's aboiut damned time. Been waiting my whole frigging life for this!

…for Bernie and though voting for Obama was thrilling—this is the happiest voting day of my life. Can't wait!!

First, the article dismisses a 10% difference as "slightly lower" in unfavorability:

The figures were slightly lower for Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders (48 percent) and Ohio Gov. John Kasich (47 percent).--from the OP (my emphasis)

Cruz and Clinton are also far underwater when it comes to image: their net favorability ratings are -23 points and -24 points, respectively. For Cruz, 26 percent of voters view him positively, compared with 49 percent who view him negatively; for Clinton, 32 percent view her favorably, compared with 56 percent who view her unfavorably.--from the OP

Sanders would defeat Cruz with a much larger margin than Clinton: he'd win by 12 points, 52 percent to 40 percent, according to the poll.--from the OP (my emphasis)

CLOSE to half the population want to vote for any of the triumvirate of crap?

It sounds like a great formula to guarantee low voter turnout.
