And you would think they would discuss the implications of that big of a news.

According to the poll,

1) Trump, the strongest GOP candidate, could very well beat Clinton.
2) Cruz, the second strongest GOP candidate, beats Clinton.
3) Which means, there's a very good chance we will get Ted Cruz or Donald Trump, if she's the nominee.

Again, you would think they would discuss that before they cut to lottery powerball news or whatever the hell that was.
But since it's an inconvenient fact for Clinton camp, I guess we should all just leave it at that.

"That is the answer to the ad Hillary put out saying that she is more electable." (paraphrase)

I think that's been Bernie's biggest obstacle, being seen as electable in November. If that can be defused, he'll have a much easier time of it in the primaries. Certainly lots of Hilary supporters on DU have said that they support Hillary as the more electable candidate, but she isn't. If people want to vote for the person with the best chance to win (or to win by a bigger amount, leading to potentially bigger coattails), it's Bernie... and that's an important message to get out. Great seeing it on ABC.
