Huma's hubby gives a surprising radio interview:

"Bernie's doing remarkably well... A lot of my friends are supporting Bernie"
It also sounded like he thinks millennial turnout may be a problem for Hillary. ?
A brief and seemingly strange conversation.
Anybody care to share comments or insights about this?

It's the game Clinton played when he ran.
Why do you think CNN got two skewed polls in favor of Bernie?

I think you can basically get any poll result you want and they use it to drive the narratives they want to use to manipulate.

(16,916 posts)I didn't see anything that told me that more men were polled than women. Could you direct me please?

(13,390 posts)I bet the Clinton campaign is working this. The name Anthony Weiner can only inspire negative reactions. I suspect the strategy is having the names paired could tranfer those negative reactions to Bernie.

(14,689 posts)Claire McCaskill just declared that Hillary Clinton is now the underdog.
This isn't surprising or anything new. Six months ago if Sanders came close in Iowa and won NH it would be a major victory. Now there is an expectation that he can win both states.
In politics it's always good to lower expectations. That is all Mr. Danger is doing here.
