Mrs. Clinton had a 4-point, 43 percent to 39 percent lead among registered Democrats, while Mr. Sanders had a 49 percent to 26 percent lead over Mrs. Clinton among registered independents and new voters. “So ABC has chronicled a 20-point plunge, but they’re not reporting it, because in the head-to-head she’s got like a two- or three-point lead over Trump head-to-head”. Bernie Sanders and Vice President Joe Biden by almost 20 points each, with 40 percent support.

Limbaugh pointed to a Washington Post/ABC News poll showing Clinton’s support dropping below 50 percent for the first time. In a statement to supporters, the candidate lashed out at the Brock-Clinton Super PAC, writing: “It was the kind of onslaught I expected to see from the Koch Brothers or Sheldon Adelson”. The headlines screaming “Clinton’s Support Erodes” are true, but only in a relative sense.
Asked by an audience member for her opinion on Sanders’ political views, Clinton said she was glad the Democrats were having a “vigorous debate“.
The telephone survey from the right-leaning polling group found that only 34 percent of likely voters believe it is unlikely that Clinton did not break the law.
So a Biden entry might not be all bad for Clinton, but she’d rather just have his voters’ support in the primary. Clinton, in turn, nearly never mentions Sanders’ name and has focused on her Republican rivals.
“You know, I’m not one of those who ever thought this was going to be a straight shot, ‘ the Democratic presidential candidate told reporters following a ‘Women for Hillary’ rally at the University of Northern Iowa in Cedar Falls”.
As ABC notes, the latest poll has Clinton and Donald Trump “virtually neck-and-neck…in a hypothetical match-up”.
On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton has lost an incredible 21 percent support over the past two months.
This is bad news for Jeb Bush, Marco Rubio, Scott Walker, Ted Cruz and the other current or former officeholders in the GOP race.
