Your aim is as poor as your understanding of economics. Try getting the right thread next time.

This poll seems to consistently have Warren higher than most of the others, though.

For the first time ever oski003 makes a correct argument. Fitting it's in response to the Professor.

Let's point out the problems with your post, Cal88 2.0.

A) At no point in time have I declared victory for anybody, Sanders included.
B) Assessing the race with any single poll, as has been repeatedly explained over and over in this forum, is moronic.
C) Using a national poll to assess the state of the race in Iowa and New Hampshire is even stupider than B.

But no one will ever look dumber than you did in this thread.

Declaring the thing that began the demise of someone's campaign as fantastic and something that every Democrat should support. That may be the all-time biggest politics fail on this board.

Warren's plan is fantastic and every Democrat should support it.

A) whatever you say
B) of course, but a poll is a poll
C) who did that? I made a fairly generic knock on you. Sorry you got triggered so badly.

Sounded fishy to me until I read this:
Quote:
The organizers say the events are run by the book and intended to promote economic development in inner cities. But the group behind the cash giveaways is registered as a 501(c)3 charitable organization. One leading legal expert on nonprofit law said the arrangement raises questions about the group's tax-exempt status, because it does not appear to be vetting the recipients of its money for legitimate charitable need.

"Charities are required to spend their money on charitable and educational activities," said Marcus Owens, a former director of the Exempt Organizations Division at the Internal Revenue Service who is now in private practice at the law firm Loeb & Loeb. "It's not immediately clear to me how simply giving money away to people at an event is a charitable act."

Cheating on taxes by characterizing political contributions as charitable is very on-brand for Trump and his supporters.

I'm sure the IRS will get right on that.

Handing out money to African Americans? Well, it's better than giving more money to billionaires. If all the President's suporters did was give money to African Americans, I'd dislike him and his supporters less than I do. I couldn't care less. It's less sketchy than giving voters rides, cash and coupons on election day.

What's sketchy about giving voters rides?

There is one thing that polls show 100% of the time...
You can't rely on them.
