There's a huge difference between the conventional wisdom and the early polls on this. The fact that Bernie polls better than Clinton against possible Republican candidates despite having less name recognition suggests that it may not be about Bernie at all, but more about Clinton's negatives.
Our beloved SW engineer Andrew Tanenbaum, (you know, MINIX and many books) who runs the website electoral-vote.com does not think so. He mistrusts those numbers, and is totally sure that nobody has a chance against Hillary Rodham this time. Esp. the big endorsements she concentrated early on.

At http://www.electoral-vote.com/evp2015/Pres/Maps/Dec27.html#i... he wonders why the top endorsements are still missing, besides the fact that Hillary cannot loose.

Personally I would endorse Bernie of course. The list of criminals and liers for POTUS is too long already. But what did we think of Obama before and what did happen?
