So wait, PPP has Clinton leading Bush by 4 in Iowa, but only by 2 in Minnesota?  Something's not right here.

Because it's sometimes annoying to not see the stats posted, here you are friends:

Jeb Bush v Hillary Clinton (IA)Sad 44% to 40%
um no, Clinton leads Bush by 4, not the other way around.

Look at the colors and the (D+4) text brother.
You really should use Atlas colors, though.  It just creates confusion if people are using different coloring systems on this board.

Once again a poll in a battleground state shows Sanders with far better favorables and performing better in the general election than Hillary Clinton.

She's the only electable candidate though, right?
Remember, for Sanders favorability, there are still a ton of undecideds.  Digging into the crosstabs, the majority of these people are conservatives and moderates.  Sanders has such a good favorable rating (+3) because its mostly liberals who have heard of him.  

The same is true for Carson's favorable rating.  He's at a +18 right now, does that mean he's going to win in a landslie? Of course not.  When candidates have such a low name recognition, their favorability doesn't actually mean that much.

That isn't to say that Clinton's favorables aren't horrible right now.  They are.  However, just because Clinton's had a bad month doesn't make Sanders any more electable.
