PRESUMED DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE HAS A FIGHT ON HER HANDS
|| By FITSNEWS || Presumed Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is trailing independent socialist U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders in early voting New Hampshire, according to a new Franklin Pierce University/ Boston Herald poll.
And yes, this is the first Democratic presidential primary poll showing Clinton trailing anybody … anywhere.
Sanders leads Clinton by a 44-37 percent margin, according to the survey – with U.S. vice president Joe Biden drawing nine percent support. The other announced Democratic candidates – former Maryland governor Martin O’Malley, former Rhode Island governor Lincoln Chafee and former U.S. Senator Jim Webb – all drew at or below one percent support.
Ready for the kicker? Back in March, Clinton led Sanders in this same poll by a 44-8 margin.
Unbelievable …
“Clinton is still viewed overwhelmingly by voters as the likely Democratic nominee, but the results suggest she faces an unexpectedly difficult fight to prevent an embarrassing opening loss in the first-in-the-nation primary,” The Boston Herald noted in reporting the results.
The Pierce/ Herald poll was conducted from August 7-10. It surveyed 442 likely Democratic primary voters in New Hampshire via live telephone interviews and has a margin of error is plus or minus 4.7 percentage points.
News of Sanders’ lead in New Hampshire broke as Clinton was announcing her intention to turn over her private email information to investigators at the U.S. Department of Justice (USDOJ). For more on that scandal, click here.
It also comes as Sanders drew huge crowds during stops in Seattle, Washington (15,000), Portland, Oregon (28,000) and Los Angeles, California (27,500).
What’s fueling Sanders’ rise?
“The reason why we are doing well in this campaign is because we are telling the truth,” he wrote on his Facebook page, “We are talking to the reality of American life today. We are talking about a reality in which almost all of the wealth and income in this country is going to the top one percent and we are going to change that.”
We obviously have an elemental disagreement with Sanders over the best way to address that disparity (he’s a socialist, we’re laissez faire libertarians), but we stand behind him 100 percent in his war on the oligarchs and corporate cronyists who are subsidizing Clinton’s candidacy.

Republicans will have to attack someone besides Hillary. I wonder if they know how.
Ain’t it hilarious that the Democrats have become the party of Castro,Chavez and Stalin?
Bernie Sanders honeymooned in the former USSSR in 1989!
According to you, a person who is on government assistance, you are the Democratic Party. I’m guessing Bernie’s your guy, GT?
That’s the party they have ALWAYS been. Until Sanders came along, they’ve just never had the guts to admit it. They find common cause and camaraderie with terrorist nations like Iran (see nuke giveaway), communist nations like Cuba, former Soviet Union, North Korea (see Clinton’s nuke giveaway) while at the same time doing everything they can to destroy the very fabric of the country in which they live.
Their candidates for president include a 90-year-old admitted socialist/communist, an unaccomplished FLOTUS-Senator-Sec of State who should be in jail right now for all of the criminal activity she’s been engaged in for 30 years, a governor who can’t even say “all lives matter” without caving to PC, and (hopefully) the current VP who has made more stupid gaffes, foreign policy misjudgments and racist statements than anybody can keep up with. That’s today’s Dumbocrat party.
Marie you make me want to barf.
I would be sick too if I were a Dumbocrat like yourself.
Donald Trump vs. Bernie Sanders would be like Statler vs. Walford on Sesame Street.
America is not smart enough to elect Sanders, which is a shame, but he isn’t going anywhere. If he was 55 instead of going on 75, she might have a genuine concern.
So you’re advocating for an avowed socialists instead of the closet socialists we already have in office?
Yes. Simply calling someone socialist isn’t enough anymore.
Hitler still works.Democrats have the same extermination policy of the people they don’t ‘value’ as the former Nazi Germany and Stalin’s Russia.
The unborn,handicapped and elderly have replaced the Jews on the ‘death lists’-although Obama and Co. are working hard with Iran to get the Jews back on the list.
My ‘sources’ in heavily Jewish communities in the WPB area of Florida are outraged by the Iran deal.
Well well big boy, now that’s a surprise. I bet if you head out to Morris County NJ you’ll find the same thing. And I have it on good information, that Indians in CT like legalized gambling.
Okay, how about this:
His “12-Step Strategy to Restore America’s Middle Class” would bankrupt the United States as it includes more social spending than anything proposed in history. He’s an advocate of the COPS program that directly led to the failures of the Baltimore PD during the Freddie Gray riots. He actually believe the Socialist BS that “…democratic and cooperative control and over industry and infrastructure…” will lead to a better society – ask the Soviet Union how that’s worked so far.
lol…Colonel I love it when you pretend to be a conservative and drop that ‘social justice’ bull shit and do a ‘triangulation’ on Fits.Billary would be proud.
Makes my day. :)
Old people are funny. Scared of everything.
Sanders certainly qualifies as “old people” – oh you were talking about me, in that case, not so much.
He is young at heart. No one said old people had to act old and have old ideas. There are a few old folks who are not racist fake christians..
Obama is a ‘fake’ Christian and is not old.
Wait, I thought he was a secret Muslim? You can’t have it both ways.
Flip is a fake idol.
Bernie probably won’t do good with southern white racist. Southern African-Americans, who make up roughly half the southern population, might take kindly to him though.
Yeah, pay attention to the news much? Bernie is struggling with the African American vote. He is being followed and harassed by the #Black Lives Matter crowd to the point that he’s left the stage or elected not to speak.
Bernie is a side-show. Assuming for the moment there is no smoking gun on the (new scrubbed) servers, Hillary is probably fine. We hold Ole’ Joe as our “trump” card – if she’s in trouble we can always inflate him and put him in to win.
Totally agree that “Socialist Sanders” is a distraction, just addressing the folks who think he’s a good choice.
As a moderate LIBERAL SOCIALIST scum – I wouldn’t vote for him. He just attracts our own nuts who didn’t feel we moved far enough left. He’s our Trump without the annoying accent. As a yankee I always notice when I go home, go to a diner with a friend, think “oh boy, the waitress is hot.” Then she opens her mouth, I hear that accent, order my “cawfee” and think – uugghh!!!
Couldn’t agree more about the accent: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgkO7XGUJyA
Sorry, went the Modern Family path – South American.
I think you need to follow the latest news. He’s actually listening to them and allowing their voice to be heard. This will end up helping him. The Trump approach to #blacklivesmatter will be a another disaster. Get off FitsNews and read some actual news.
They will wind up making him even less important than he already is – adults use the word marginalize but I wasn’t sure if you’r know what that means.
black Americans are not “African Americans” unless they hold 2 citizenships and one happens to be Africa.
Did you forget you already posted that? Like before.
uh, no black Americans are “African Americans” unless they hold 2 citizenships and one happens to be Africa.
Idiot.
They are smart.They see people like you burning down communities and killing police officers and lock the doors at night.
They see people like you try and steal others personal wealth and redistribute it to those that are illegals,NON citizens and criminals.
Wait? Is Bernie a socialist, like you are a real colonel?
Attacking those that serve our nation?
Just like your hero Trump.
I’m just being a good republican by attacks those who serve.
I haven’t studied his platform that closely, but too big to fail banks need to be broken up, and he clearly isn’t a paid shill for the emerging oligarchy that supports the GOP. His most extreme platform planks would never get through Congress anyway.
I bet you consider Germany was smart to elect Hitler, and Russia “Elected” Stalin. Don’t you?
Also: The Rev. Jim Jones was the last “great” socialist in the news. RU proud Dumbass.
The Ayatollah,Assad or Castro?
Only YOU liberals – who believe that Hillary is a can’t-lose Queen, loved by all Americans – are surprised.
By any standard, Hillary is an ugly, caustic witch, who is greedy, selfish and hateful.
She PERFECTLY represents your Democrat Party for what it is, and who you ARE. Only you are oblivious to that, because you have no idea how most of our country sees you.
IOW: Hillarys like White Elephants. Hahahaha.
he returns! the all caps give it away every time
You return VACANT, every time.
Still looking for a substantial thought?
Ol TransTango. Is the old handle banned or did you get tired of being ridiculed?
Who cares. Censoring free speech?
Who’s censoring anything here, you fucking dumb as dirt bumpkin?
“Ol TransTango”
Tango has requested that he be called Caitlyn going forward. Thank you.
Just like 2008. The republicans presume Hillary will be the nominee. Just like 2008, they lose in a landslide. Fanatical morons like you ARE the Republican Party now. Have fun with the ashes ;-)
In 08, you had a savior in the black community, to motivate the multi-voters you so desperately need.
Are you claiming Biden is your savior this time. PLEASE say YES…PLEASE.
Have you seen the 25,000+ crowds he’s been drawing? Trump and the others can’t even draw a fraction of that with hired crowds. I can see why the flashbacks are scaring you.
All those people are either the vietnam era losers STILL angry that the USSSR lost the ‘Cold War’ and college students being brainwashed with the same tactics that gave us Bill Ayers and Barack Obama.
American hating losers and perpetual welfare recipients that seek the destruction of this nation.Filthy ‘Occupy Wall Street’ trash and New Black Panther operatives ‘Black Lives Matter’.
The worst America has to offer.
Those ‘losers’ are voters. I don’t see ANY republican, including Trump and his hired crowds, coming anywhere close to Betnie’s numbers. I can see why you are scared….again.
No Flip, isn’t that just a little over the top? For someone who’s all about being inclusive, and not devisive, them’s pretty devisive words. Would you like to rephrase?
No.
What you really want to say is that Killery is” Satan’s Whore”…..
I’m confused. Are we talking about Hillary or Catlin?
Hillary, of course …..
Why do you support a Canadian who’s Fad was an actual, honest to God communist revolutionary?
Since Sanders is the Senator from neighboring Vermont, it is not that surprising.. If he can get elected in Vermont, a state traditionally more conservative New Hampshire, he can get elected in New Hampshire. He has no shot however outside of New England.
No shot? If Putin steps down, or Fidel dies, there are some opportunities.
That goes for Obama, too. And Baack’s chances double, if Khomeini kicks off or ISIS is looking for an ED.
And what better way to defeat America’s enemies, than to send our worst failures to manage them.
Actually I think Cruz should run to replace Fidel. Didn’t his father fight for Castro in the Communist Revolution?
You always react like idiots when I score big. Thanks for confirming. I really liked my post for creativity and accuracy. I like it even more now thanks to you.
Just answer my question, Isn’t Cruz the son of a Cuban Communist revolutionary who fought for Castro?
Obama is the son of a Communist revolutionary that fought for marxism.
Obama’s father was a socialist, not a communist and he never “fought” for Marxism. He was employed as an economist for the Kenyan government before he lost both of his legs in a automobile accident and lost his job. As a paraplegic it would have been difficult for him to fight in a revolution.
Cruz’s father on the other hand is a different story. He in fact was a Communist Revolutionary. He fought for Castro, in the revolution.

4. Obama’s Teen Mentor was Frank Marshall Davis (a known CPUSA member) – “…through Frank Marshall Davis, Obama had an admitted relationship with someone who was publicly identified as a member of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA). The record shows that Obama was in Hawaii from 1971-1979, where, at some point in time, he developed a close relationship, almost like a son, with Davis, listening to his poetry and getting advice on his career path. But Obama, in his book, Dreams From My Father, refers to him repeatedly as just Frank.” Source: Cliff Kincaid, Accuracy in the Media “Kathryn Takara of the University of Hawaii, who wrote a dissertation on the life of Frank Marshall Davis, confirming Davis was a significant influence on Obama when the senator attended Punahou prep school in Hawaii from 1975 to 1979” Source: Jim Corsi, WorldNetDaily based on Communism in Hawaii and the Obama Connection (Cliff Kincaid and Herbert Romerstein)

Dude, you could go over to USC’s International Studies library and fund a ton of writings like Number 1 – I once wrote I liked Bill Cosby, doesn’t mean I want to sleep with him. And for sure, if you and I met at Gate B-2 in Atlanta, I’d call you a Fellow Traveler. Oh, and I had several friends at grad school at USC who took Russian class, one ended up working for the CIA.
Context Rocky, context.
Whew!!! (Catching my breath) – Yeah, I guess I just need to go get some lunch.
flip’s parents are siblings!
Putin said Obama is a clown
Seriously, is Cruz’s father running for office? Does Obama’s father govern anywhere? Why does this matter?
I may look/sound/act like my father but our politics are vastly different.
Cruz’s father was all of 17 when he “…tried to join Castro’s Army…” he left Cuba and returned two years later and was appalled at what Castro had done. When assessing Papa Cruz, you must consider what a son of a bitch Presidnet Fulgencio Batista really was. It’s a great story to attack Cruz but it has already been addressed and like Obama’s socialist father, it really doesn’t have any legs…
I sorta think Rafeal’s had a small change of heart since 1957
Defending communists now? Oh how strange times have become for ‘conservatives’. You morons don’t know what to believe anymore. LoLz
Don’t worry, Fake News will tell them what to believe, and they will. They have been duped so many times, they don’t even know what truth is.
From what I have gathered Rafeal had a change of heart after he saw what communism really was. The pie in the sky lies of communism are soon replaced by reality after the revolution.
All of a sudden Obama’s father has nothing to do with it?. Never mind that Obama has been called a Kenyan Communist by the Republicans leadership since he was elected. Never mind all the he was supposedly influenced by the father who never even raised him. Suddenly when a Republican has a communist revolutionary father, who did raise him, he must have changed. We can trust him. He would not lie about being a Communist. .
I have an idea. Why don’t we just not take the risk. Lets just elect someone whose Parents and Grand Parents were born in this country.
Cruz is more likely a Juan Peron want-a-be than a communist.
I see you are quoting from Ted Cruz about his father. Well, that is certainly a convenient and unbiased source. Why do we have to consider how bad Batista was only when looking at Ted Cruz’s father?
According to the Guardian, “The Cruzes have long admitted that Rafael was an early Castro sympathizer..”
Also according to the Guardian, The elder Cruz bribed his way to a Cuban exit visa and headed to the University of Texas.” So he was an illegal alien attending a state supported University, and using US Taxpayer dollars to help him pay for his education.
The hypocrisy of you people is astounding.
I have an idea lets elect someone who has their roots in this country. I am not interested in the Hispanic revolutionary mindset. That is all we need is someone who will turn into either a communist or a right wing fascist, running a Banana Republic.
.
Obama is still fighting for marxism.
**crickets**
**crickets** Large bass swallows them and heads to the bottom of the pond licking it’s lips.
The point is Cruz is toast, if you hold him to the standards you apply to Obama.
If you held Obama to the standard you’re holding Cruz, he’d still be a community agitator.
No. He never fought for or with Castro. He did fight against Batista but never for or with Castro. That definitive enough for you?
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/28/us/politics/ted-cruz-recalls-how-father-tried-to-join-fidel-castros-army.html?_r=0
Well if he never fought with Castro (Ted’s story), it was not for lack of trying. Even Ted admits he made numerous attempts to do so.
The Democrats have not elected a White President since 1980. This year will be no different.
Better come up with a Race-hate-divider QUICK, and he/she BETTER be black, or your ass is grass. That’s what your party has sunk into being. Polarizing and Hate-based, only.
And I would not be sure a black savior can do it, after the mess Obama has made. Even his most ardent followers are tired of suffering under his miserable and failed policies. People don’t like starving, while the Democrat elite lives like kings and queens.
Well Democrats would have a problem coming up with a race-hate-divider, since they are all Republicans; are you volunteering?
If that’s all you got, why bother, you brain-dead moron.
They elected Obama. His goal from the beginning was to divide Americans among racial lines.
You are right, flip. And I think he succeeded at a level higher than anyone ever imagined. This country is ripped apart, and Obama is proud as Castro about it.
No, you both hated modern diverse America long before Obama. You probably hated Mexicans most starting around 2003. Your hatred for Blacks started about 4 years after birth.
I don’t hate anybody Rocky.I just like exposing American hating welfare leeches like you and mother in-law.
We love you too.
Of the real people that I know who are currently on welfare and food stamps, everyone is a republican voter. Every fucking one.
Now, now. I hear Ohio is like welfare central. Flip? Can you confirm?
That’s funny, because since only like 13% of the country is black, he must have gotten a whole bunch of whities to vote for him.
Welfare queens and NON citizens….some young people brainwashed at state controlled universities….
I’m trying to figure out if you are more dumb than racist or vice versa.
I’m just over your head, and I use ideas that the DNC and the media have never fed you. You’ll always be lost trying to follow me.
I have that effect on Dumbasses. And you fit the profile for a Dumbass, perfectly.
More dumb it is.
Uh, is it just me, or is 1992 and 1996 after 1980? Maybe you can change your name to Better have A Math Class.
HIs reference was probably making fun of Clinton’s being referred to as America’s first black President.
Ah, OK. Guess that was a little unclear. The “Better Have A Black Replacement” fellow – seems like we’ve heard from him before. I dunno – maybe like under a couple of different names? I always through Bill Clinton was white. If he was secretly black and holding anaconda unknown to us, that might explain the Flowers, Paul Jones and Monica thing.
I’m sure you remember Clinton being referred to as such. It was comical then and comical now.
Still explains Monica, Paula and Jennifer.
You are ignorant, even of your own gods.
Author Toni Morrison’s statement that Bill Clinton is America’s “first black president” has been repeated often. Morrison made the comment in a short essay in the New Yorker….Source: Salon.com
I’m not surprised that you are ignorant, but thanks for giving me the chance to demonstrate it.
The economy has done way better under democratic presidents. GWB wouldn’t have even had a chance to destroy the country if the Supreme Court hadn’t selected him.
Is that why Hillary is running against Obama’s economy?
Does Bernie give Shout Outs to Adolph Hitler and Rev. Jim Jones as his most-famous predecessors?
murderess Hillary Clinton will never be president. what was she thinking? the trail of blood follows her! from Ron Brown, Vince Foster, to Don Henry and Kevin Ives (the two boys found dead on the railroad track), and the list goes on and on. “WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE” she says. She belongs in prison.
LOL
Don’t forget the trail of blood which also leads all the way to Benghazi, where HiLIARy took that 3 AM phone call…and proceeded to stand by and stand down while 4 brave Americans were slaughtered by a terrorist attack they had prior knowledge was likely coming. And THEN she turned around and LIED about why it happened. She’s a disgusting human being who has no more business being the president than she does the local dog catcher. But to the shameless Dums, what difference does it make?
