"* Sanders has a 27% lead over Clinton among those under 45 years old"



If THIS trend continues, the Democratic Party will very soon become an obsolete group of old, white men & women screaming at the kids to get off their lawn and keep taxes low on The RICH.

If Bernie doesn't win the Dem Primary THIS time, he has given voice to a movement that won't Go Away soon. It will be even stronger in 2020.
IF the Democratic Party continues to ridicule The Working Class and Democratic Wing and appoint near-Republicans, it WILL ride its arrogance and pomposity into obscurity. As far as Working People and the Poor, the Party evaporated for them in 1992, but it has taken 20 years for most to wake up and start listening to Bernie.

Maybe our kids will save us from the depredations of a corrupt Political System and Perpetual WAR. We sure don't deserve it. We didn't do much for them.

I am optimistic, and somewhere, Woodie is smiling at the Millennials. I am too!
It will take a long time to repair the damage done by Republicans and near-Republicans since the 80s.

One Day at a time.
One Person at a time.

But the topline number went down!! So it's over!! jeff47 Dec 2015 #1

No, you're not. The OP has the Pollster regression doing something it can't do well Godhumor Dec 2015 #3
