If Bernie wins the Democratic nomination, how do you gauge his chances of winning the general?


Very Likely
35 (42%)
About even
17 (20%)
Not likely at all
27 (33%)
Other.
4 (5%)

9. He would represent real change but would have the entire establishment

arrayed against him. Tough tight race. 50/50 chance of winning. Or he could get slaughtered. By the way I think Hillary also would either win a close race or get slaughtered.

20. Bernie is a populist that sticks to his message.

People are tired of Republican ideas and desperate for the ideas that Bernie is pushing.

It will depend on if people actually care to vote.

27. He'll make mincemeat of the talking points the Rs employ...

...if, on the way to winning the nomination, he has not had to compromise absolutely everything he had stood for.

I suspect he'll be a fine debater, but I'll be watching to see how he presents himself.

He will sell lots of paper towels as they have to wipe the spit from the camera lens.

28. It depends on how many Democrats don't vote for him in the general...

for whatever reasons.

And considering the division within the Republican Party, I could see Bernie appealing to a lot of "Reagan Democrat" types and also some Republicans.

I would say his chances are good but that he will have to overcome the "old socialist" label. He's a wise old coot with the right ideas to fix this country.

This is why kentuck is regarded as perhaps the stupidest of the stupid.

Bernie Sanders is a Socialist and he makes no bones about that.

He'd at least be the first Dem candidate in a long time to be honest from the start about his political beliefs.

Well, there's that.  He is at least the only honest person in their entire caucus.

I seriously doubt Bernie will make it through 5 primaries before he pulls out. I just don't believe that there are as many full bore leftists as DU thinks.

One thing that will be made clear, whatever the results are of "A Primary at Bernie's" it will be known just how accepted by the rest of the country the far left is.

The DUmbass is correct. A lot of people who voted for Reagan would vote for a Socialist like Sanders.....the dead ones. The ones that are still on the sunny side of the dirt? Not so much.

1. The Democratic base will come out and vote for our candidate, whoever it is. What's different ...

... about Bernie's candidacy is that he will inspire millions of those who normally stay home to show up at the polls.

4. I agree that Bernie will inspire more people to go to the polls.

Also, I think there are more disenchanted Republicans than we can guess and Bernie has a chance to get their votes, also, if he asks for them. If people vote the issues instead of their Party, Bernie can win.

Bernie's like a lot of Dem candidates over the years--an old, white male.

He won't inspire any new voters.  He'll turn a lot of the Obama coalition off.
