Poll: Sanders more electable than Hillary against top RepublicansBy Jesse Byrnes * Dec. 2, 2015 * The Hill
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is more electable than Democratic presidential rival Hillary Clinton against several top Republican candidates, according to the new national Quinnipiac University Poll.
Sanders leads Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) by 10 points, businessman Donald Trump by 8 points, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson by 6 points and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) by 1 point in the poll. Clinton also leads the top four Republican candidates, but by slightly smaller margins. She leads Cruz by 5 points, Trump by 6 points, Carson by 3 points and Rubio by 1 point in the survey.
Still, Clinton has widened her lead in the Democratic race to 30 points in the poll, taking 60 percent to Sanders's 30 percent. Former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley takes 2 percent in the latest poll.
On the Republican side, Trump has widened his lead and is now supported by 27 percent, followed by Rubio at 17 percent and Cruz and Carson tied at 16 percent.

Why would any "good Democrat" want to nominate a "less unelectable" candidate to the GE?

This reflects that fact that the GOP have blasted Hillary for 40 years, but left Bernie alone.

The MSM has not given Hillary a pass. Even the NYT constantly runs Hillary-bashing pieces.

No, the media has never been kind to Hillary. Yet she has survived and is winning.

The media would not be bashing Hillary if they wanted to "install her" as nominee. nt
