In 2007 we didn't have:
Gerrymandering to benefit GOP nationwide
Citizens United
And since then, we DO have:
VRA gutted and assinine 'voter id' laws to suppress voting
Am I therefore cynical? Yep.

This quote from the op link:
But Sanders is definitely catching fire as voters become more familiar with him- his favorability is 61/14, up from 40/16 on the previous poll. As Democrats get to know him they're pretty much completely deciding that they like him.

They want people to have a false idea of him before they hear him speak.

.Trump and how he contributed to her 08 campaign. She and Bill attended some Trump weddingmaybe Trump's daughter? Anyway, this is the type of thing that makes her favorables go down.
Go Bernie! It will depend us.
