538 talks about the recent polling upswing for Sanders: https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/election-update-sanders-is-on-the-upswing/

As most of these polls were conducted before the impeachment process, it will be interesting to see with the next batch of polls, how much the sitting senators (Sanders, Warren, Klobuchar) were hurt by the fact they couldn't campaign in Iowa.

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2020/president/us/2020_democratic_presidential_nomination-6730.html

Sanders at 23.4% nationally according to RCP, only 5.3% behind Biden who is at 28.7%. Sanders in first in both Iowa and NH with a sizable lead in NH. He's close behind Biden in Nevada.

Y'all ready for a Sanders presidency!?

Don't be too optimistic. Corporate democrats will find a way, a smear, a doubt, something to stop him. And if Sanders will get the nomination somehow, I have strong doubts they will grant him the party unity, that they demand from him. So, for the moment I remain somewhat sceptic.

10 years greatest game event!

I'll get over my negative feelings if it comes to that, if only because Republicans should never, ever be allowed to get a 6-3 in the Supreme Court.

Yeah I'm still out here campaigning like we're in dead last, gotta keep that motivation.

I agree, corporate Dems hate Sanders more than 45. They'll use any underhanded tactic to make sure Sanders doesn't get the nomination or the presidency. But I have faith that the American people will ultimately see through their bs.

If Bernie does win the primary, don't make it hard for people to support him.

Some of the latest general election polls have been damn depressing. Trump has closed the margins hard came 2020. This reminds me a lot of Trump vs. Clinton at certain stages.

And to highlight how things are skewed, it has been estimated it takes a win of about 2 points for the Democratic candidate to have at least even chances of winning the EV against Trump.

Mixture of economic stability and more people against impeachment/removal. 

When the nominee is set and debates happen I think the Dems will get a solid lead unless they fuck up.

Then keep being yourself so Bernie gains a lot of sympathy.

Really makes me wonder if after Bernie wins the primary Republicans will be the enemy for once, or progressives will keep denouncing Biden, Warren, Hillary, the DNC, the media up until election day.

Your comment was rude so I replied in kind. Next time don't come at someone sideways like that. No one has a right to order someone around. Check yourself.
