Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders has pulled to within 10 points of Hillary Clinton in a new Suffolk University poll of likely Democratic primary voters in New Hampshire. And Sanders is actually leading Clinton among Democratic men included in the survey, reports the Washington Examiner.
Overall, Clinton leads the Democratic race 41 percent to 31 percent. But among men, Sanders leads Clinton, 35 percent to 32 percent. That lead is more than offset by Clinton's huge lead over Sanders among women, 47 percent to 28 percent.
Sanders is a dangerous guy, just becasue he is antiwar does not mean he is a good candidate. If he is in favor of high taxes, government healthcare and is anti-free market, and he is all of things things, he is pretty bad. He may want not want to shoot foreigners, but if he wants to suffocate American's, I have little use for him.
Further, he is of little strategic value, since he will do nothing but get the country talking about socialism.

But, Bob, isn't the appropriate criteria for libertarians how much disrespect for government the person can accomplish during his term? By these parameters, Bernie might be just the man we're looking for.
ReplyDeleteRobert, is Rand better than Sanders?
