In reply to the discussion: Has Bernie's Window Closed? [View all]Liberty Belle
(9,581 posts)2. He's polling in the top 4, so it's too early to conclude that.
Especially if any of the other top 3 flame out due to gaffes, background stuff coming out etc., he could still be viable.
I think there are stronger candidates this time but that's only my opinion, and it is still very early in the race. Bernie was vetted in the last election, so only likely to drop if others become better known and rise in popularity with voters.
