A new poll finds Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) leading Hillary Clinton by 7 points in New Hampshire.

Sanders commands 43 percent to Clinton’s 36 percent in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination in the Granite State, according to the latest Monmouth University sampling.

Vice President Biden, who is considering a late entry into the presidential race, trails the pair with 13 percent, while former Gov. Martin O’Malley (D-Md.) gets 2 percent.
Former Gov. Lincoln Chafee (D-R.I.), former Sen. Jim Webb (D-Va.) and Harvard Law School Professor Lawrence Lessig each receive 1 percent.

Sanders has an edge over Clinton in New Hampshire with both genders, leading men 44 percent to 34 percent and women 42 percent to 38 percent.

Since he was up what, 10 in the other poll? Or it might just be MOE or different voter models.

(Edit, oh wait, that was Iowa, not NH. He was up something like 22 points in the other poll for NH. Interesting. We'll just have to wait for more polls to come in, see where the difference gets split.)

Although i worry , IMO is our Primary goes all the way to the convention and our candidates come out terrible.. but then again .. 2008 was a contested primary and the D still won.. i however am scared right now as I am seeing multiple poss showing our guys going down in batteground states against the GOP.. but as people get to know Bernie i hope he can do it!! And if Hillary can survive and thrive and beat the GOP... i guess we will see but i want the strongest candidate in the GE.. what scares me is Ben frickin Casron and Trump the two biggest clowns beating our D candidates in swing states , that should terrify us!!!
