Good thing that a) Hillary leads by 50 points in the real polls and b) Warren isn't running.

Just out of curiosity, what were the results of their 2008 survey?

I found this from March 2007.

Would she [Hillary] have even cracked single digits here (and in similar communities) in 2008?

I will now accept my accolades. Great job more than doubling your support Hillary! Cheesy

In all seriousness, if Hillary could get 48% in 2008 when she was at 9% in this poll and trailing f'ing Kucinich, the fact that she's at 23% now...

Isn't this faction of the Democratic Party totally irrelevant ? (no offense leftists)

Kucinich was at 10% and ahead of the lady in gold. Draw your own conclusion. Wink

Yeah, Hillary ran against ten candidates in 2008. She is running against three this time around. Do you really think a ten percent improvement is important?

Anyway, this faction of the Democratic Party is just as hackish as some of my fellow Paulites are in the GOP. Just another small (but rapidly growing) corner of the tent.

Well, the point was that Hillary had virtually no support among this type of "activist progressive" community in 2008 despite the fact that she won 48% of the vote. Now she has a pretty decent chunk of support there, which is just more evidence of the across the board shift in support to Hillary across all segments of the party (which lines up with the polling evidence, going from ~35% at this point in 2008 to 60-65% now).

Also, how exactly is it that Edwards had so much support in this poll when the Iraq War vote was supposed to be what killed Hillary? And he voted the exact same way as she did.

Jeez, we're only two weeks into the 2016 cycle and people are already getting annoyed with me interrupting the anti-Hillary circlejerk? This is gonna be a fun 2 years. Smiley
