It's all strategy.
Poll released today has the Queen beating Donald handily but losing to Rubio.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Rubio is 7 points behind 2nd place in Arkansas. I don't see that happening.

We shall see. I still believe Rubio will be the GOP nominee.
You would get excellent odds on PredictIt right now if you put money on that.
14 cents a share.
I don't give too much value on these polls, as long as the primary dust hasn't settled. Drumpf hasn't even started to tear Into Clinton.

Big Dawg and Obama both going to go HAM on Trump once he locks up the nomination.
Seems like a pretty solid plan to me... basically a hybrid of Bill Clinton & Obama's campaign strategies.

You're kidding, right? She's the only person the Republicans talk about more at their debates than each other or maybe Obama.

Obama will tear Trump apart, just look at what he did at the correspondents dinner.
Yes, it will be the most glorious tag-team in politics. Hype!
I'm not sure, but I think so.

Gonna be weird having our first Queen since Queen Charolette tbh
look at how desperate some of bernie supporters got.
This is confirmed fake:
We discussed already how similar Bernie's campaign is to Ted Cruz's.
Stealing databases. Sneaking into meetings disguised as union members. Now faking endorsements.

When did Warren get Ted Kennedy status ? I don't know why her endorsement is talked about so much
She really hates Wall Street and enjoys hero status because of it.
Not Drumpf. He hasn't really started, else we'd be talking clintonrelated semen jokes.

She has been very influential and in a very good way.

I mean I really like her, and I know pretty much everyone on here does too, but does she have that much influence within the party/ with actual voters?
I'm just not sure that even if she did endorse sanders that it would have been the tide swinging pendulum that media has sort of made it out to be.
In the past few months Trump has already said she couldn't satisfy Bill hence she won't be able to satisfy America, has said its disgusting she went to a bathroom during a debate, that she got schlonged in 2008...
All that's left is for him to call her a filthy bitch or something and that's the election.
Hillary needs to mount an unconventional campaign. Don't lower herself like Rubio did and look un-Presidential, but Trump has so many negatives that these need to be exploited in full.
I also believe things like "con man" / Trump University / "Is he really that rich?" / etc will harm him more than the racist stuff. Remember, Trump's big surge came after he called Mexicans rapists.

It's swing voters who were already going to vote for Sanders anyways. She's not really widely known outside of the Internet and Mass.

She's also losing to Ted, which means the poll is still early for a GE matchup. No doubt bernie folks will run with it.

Happy Super Tuesday peeps. I know that all of us, just like Trump, turn to the Bible on days like today.
This is the day that the Queen hath made, let us rejoice and YAASSSSSSSS QUEEN WERK in it.

By primary or by brokered convention?
On a side note, I think that NASCAR endorsement of Trump was ultimately bizarre but is so strategically brilliant the day bedore Super Tuesday.

Oh lawd, lol
Where is he deflating?That GE poll is weird. I'd like to see the internals.
Anyway, Don's deflating at the perfect time. Right when it's too late to do anything about him.
There's no way they crown Little Rubio the nominee without fucking up their party for the foreseeable future.

There's an argument to be made, that the GOP is damaged anyway. Crowning Rubio on a brokered convention might be the lesser evil.
Fuck no he can't deflate till after March 15 so he beats Rubio in FL. Where is he deflating?That GE poll is weird. I'd like to see the internals.

He hasn't deflated in a single poll. Though I suppose none of the polls would have captured this Duke stuff.

The full breakdown is here: http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2016/images/02/29/rel4b.-.2016.general.pdf
It doesn't appear that they list the respondents race and gender only that they weighted results based on Census data. Party breakdown is reasonable at 32% Dem, 29% GOP, and 39% independents. There were actually slightly more Republicans + leaners than Dems + leaners.
Overall, you have to say that Trump is behind because there are a group of Republicans and independents who go against their normal voting pattern and pick Clinton over him. That's why Cruz is ahead in that race, he's running as a generic R. This isn't overly favorable to Clinton that I can see. Her popularity is a net - 13, which is about average. The Don's as -23, which also is about right.
One thing that I think is encouraging for Clinton is that Trump is viewed as the best candidate for the economy and terrorism and is still losing. Clinton should be able to show her domestic policies are best over a long campaign.
Trump's got Florida on lockdown I'm not concerned about that one.
