Made me laugh.
Probably a Trump supporter.
Crazy Trump guy that lives near me has swapped out his car again. I noticed that it says donaldtrumpjunior.net on it and the limo said Donald Trump Junior on it so it must be related to him in some way.
Edit: no, it's not the actual Donald trump Jr. It's...actually I don't know what this is

Maybe Clinton's campaign should have paid their interns after all... https://twitter.com/HillaryClinton/status/733694076961329152

Does he go "on patrol" in that thing?
Yup, totally broken on iOS, both chrome and safari apps. Keeps reloading over and over.
Best I can tell he is a Trump impersonator and he has a whole bunch of these cars. He goes to Trump rallies and to Wal-marts to hand out bumper stickers. He had disappeared for a long while probably because he was following the campaign around.

In between refreshes it looks like the dude a comedian, and Trump impersonation in his shtick.

I mean, you could argue this, but Trump also supported those interventions other than Syria.
... And ISIS came about a good bit before we started doing any serious intervention in Syria.

Holy shit, this is great.
This somewhat goes against the narrative I see on GAF where everybody supporting Sanders is an uneducated closet racist white guy. http://www.gallup.com/poll/191465/millennials-sanders-dislike-election-process.aspx
Among people aged 20-36, Sanders has higher favorability among basically every demographic. Not just men, women too. Not just whites, but also blacks and hispanics. Not just people with little education -- Sanders does better on all levels of education. Moderate or liberal, doesn't matter, young people prefer Sanders across the board.

Ha, FOX is really doubling down on that "Bernie supporter" that will support Trump.
Youtube Harlan Hill at your own peril.

Honest question: is favorability the same thing as support?
Because until recently I knew plenty of people who weren't supporting Sanders and never would unless he somehow became the nominee, but thought he was a "Gee gosh golly swell guy with some interesting ideas."
EDIT: Beaten like Bernie

You're conflating support with votes. You can support both, but you can't vote for both. Supporting can mean a lot of things, voting is just voting.
Nope. Liking someone is not the same thing as thinking they'd be the best person for the job, no matter how much the Bush years got the media to conflate the two more than they should have.

Well, current data also suggests young people greatly prefer Clinton to Trump, so I'm not too worried there yet. But the Clinton/Trump polls are too close for comfort, I agree.

What little potential there was for buyer's remorse has all but been erased by the Nevada mess and Bernie's piss-poor response to it. The bad press he has gotten over that has been immense, bigger than when he flunked out of his own ideology in front of the New York Daily News. That, combined with the news of his campaign going broke...the media can smell blood, and I think that's going to start to reflect in his favorability ratings.

This is true, President McCain was leading Obama this time in 2008.

Btw if you exclude Rasmussen from HuffPo's aggregate Clinton's lead jumps from 2.7 points to 7.6.

Oh I'm well aware that Sanders won't be the Democratic nominee.

But if you do Sam Wang's method of taking the median of the last 12 in order to get rid of outliers like that, it's still only a 2.5 point lead.

Rasmussen is universally shit upon for a reason.
Still think it's a 2-4 point race at the moment.
If Sanders can poll strong against Trump during a two-sided war, I'd hope Clinton can too. She's supposed to be the stronger candidate, right? Yes, you can rationalize it away -- I know all the arguments for why the polls aren't indicative and I mostly agree with them, but it's still closer than I'd like. This is Trump we're talking about, not a typical candidate -- it shouldn't be close at all.

You're not supposed to exclude polls like that. For all we know, it is shifting the aggregate closer to the reality.
Never said they would. Not sure why you're bringing it up. We can discuss demographics without talking about the outcomes of the primary.
Yeah, like I said, I've heard this a million times and I don't even disagree with it in general. That doesn't mean I'm comfortable with how close Clinton is polling against Trump.
It's not a two sided war.
1) it's not a war, it's over
2) Hillary has not mentioned Bernie for a month
edit: I'm serious. Not to be flip, but there is absolutely 0 fire trained on Bernie right now. The worst thing said about him by any candidate was Trump calling him "Crazy" and then immediately flipping and saying he should run because the democrats are mean to him (sounds like a forum poster, honestly). Trump is getting fire from Hillary, and Hillary is getting fire from Trump AND Bernie (if not directly, than the things he says directly indict her by all but name).
IMO Bernie is lowering her favorables among Democrats, but that's OK because it'll come back up once he's out.

I love how Sanders' argument went from 'Superdelegates should follow the will of the people and vote for who won their state's primary/caucus' to 'Fuck the will of the people, superdelegates should vote Sanders because polls'.
Yes? PoliGAF is like 90% obsessing over polls while waiting for the next round of polls.
Looks like it.

State polls (in swing states) are more relevant, but national polls are better than nothing.
Morning Joe comes up "trumps" 
again:
Damn straight on the new car analogy, and I vote for a Tesla Model 3, without the front end that just looks wrong, and as aerodynamic as a brick.
NOTE: these highly accurate transcripts are only possible with the power of the PS3 (man, have you ever tried jumping back a small amount using a video position slider?), in combination with the BD / Media remote and bookmarklet 2s Step back button feature.

I saw conservatives bragging about this as if he "got her". They just copy/paste whatever republicans tell them and run with it.
Clinton is supposed to be the stronger candidate. You guys keep pretending Sanders and Clinton are coming into this on equal ground. He's always been the underdog, yes, even when he's outspending her. Throughout this campaign I've always assumed I'd be voting for Clinton in the GE (still do) -- as this has gone on, it's become clear she's severely compromised and I think a lot of you guys are too quick to try and rationalize it away. If it weren't for Trump, she'd have the biggest unfavorable ratings in history. That's not something you want. If you can't acknowledge her weaknesses, I think you're being foolish. Sanders is beating my expectations and Clinton is not meeting my expectations in terms of performance and polling -- as we approach the GE with Clinton, and Trump has also beaten my expectations, that's scary for me. Maybe you guys always assumed she'd do this bad, I don't know.
Right now it's looking like Clinton will still have a relatively easy path to victory over Trump, but it's closer than I'm comfortable with. I've never suggested these early polls will definitely be indicative of the November results, but while it is early, I don't necessarily think it's safe to assume things will only get easier for Clinton. Maybe you guys are comfortable with it, but I'm worried we're underestimating Trump and some of you are overestimating Clinton, and that would not be wise.
All right, then, I guess I'll restate that we should not care about these polls until both nominations are finalized.
