Registered Democratic Party Voter 'Extremely Enthusiastic' Rises From 18% to 33%, Republican Party 'Extremely Enthusiastic' Stalls at 28%.

(Tab 6, page 3 to 5)

Lots of interesting stuff....all good.


Edit: CNN Lies About CNN Party Enthusiam Voter Polling - While Interviewing Jennifer Palmieri, Communications Director, Hillary for America

"Our current poll - by the way, I am sure you have gone through the numbers - shows that Republicans are now more enthusiastic about voting than Democrats are, and that could potentially "bode ill" if in fact she gets the Democratic Party nomination....one final question before I let you go on this new Quinnipec poll regarding Biden in Florida....?"

WTF?

Giant accompanying chyron: 56% Say Clinton Private Email Use 'Wrong'

Trump: Email Probe Devastating For Clinton

What a corporate toad and tool Wolf is, and a skilled liar, lies regarding his own corporate media polls...wages must be good.

Look at the math, Wolf, we can all read the same thing about the enthusiasm numbers I am sure everyone has gone through....but why mention that and rapidly move to another question...Wolf...Wolf? Paragraph 6, page 4 really got your attention, I see.

How obvious can CNN be that they are GOP propaganda channel number 2?

besides Bernie energizing huge segments of the Democratic base. There is a reason for that surge in Democratic voter enthusiasm and it is due to the candidate from VT.

ignored because I think they are quite remarkable...Democratic Party "Very Enthusiatic" going from 18% to 33% would be HUGE news....if it was the Republican Party....am I right?

Trust me, it is huge news inside political circles...huge.

However if the media were to investigate the cause for this increase, they would need to acknowledge the Sanders campaign, something which they are loathe to do.

So I have no problem with Biden being included.

I never thought Sanders would be surging the way he is.

I just saw an impromptu interview Sanders gave that was quite impressive.

At this stage, I have an open mind about the Dem candidates. I liked that Sanders interview, I liked Martin O'Malley when I lived in MD, I like a lot of things about Hillary and would be thrilled to have a female President. I like Biden.

I think Dems are so lucky that we have so many good candidates. I think any one of them would be infinitely preferable to any one of the Repub candidates, all of whom would be a disaster as President.

which is why I'm confident we'll win 2016 and it will be the Republicans' turn to lose 3 in a row. We were "the seven dwarves" back then, they are now the Konservative Klown Kar.

The latest Quinnipiac has Clinton losing to Rubio in Pennsylvania of all things. But it's within the statistical margin of error. They also have Clinton losing to Bush in Florida.

Am I supposed to be impressed?

"According to the State Department, the most-traveled Secretary of State in history visited 112 countries during her four-year tenure, traversing 956,733 miles -- enough to span the globe more than 38 times -- and spending 401 total days on the road." Feb 2, 2013

Because.......I am.

Hard work repairing the world-wide damage to America's reputation and friendships after...you know who and what.
