As we know now, Mitt Romney's advisors weren't living in the real world before last November's election. And their confidence even affected candidate Romney -- having him join them in their dream world, where all the polls were wrong and Romney was a sure election winner. That's why it came as such a complete shock to Romney that he lost the election (by a significant margin), and the polls were right after all.Romney and most of his advisors were shocked into reality on election night, and many of them are trying to find out how they could have been so wrong. But Mitt's top advisor, Stuart Stevens (pictured above), seems to have decided that he prefers to stay in his dream world (where unicorns exist, and they all vote Republican). He predicted last Wednesday that Hillary Clinton couldn't win the Democratic primary in 2016 if she decides to run.
He said, "I would predict that if Hillary Clinton runs, she'll lose the primary. She's been around since the 70's. It's very rare that we go back a generation. . .If I was a Democratic hot-shot politician, I would primary her so fast." Stevens is either trying to fool some Democrats into wasting money in a 2016 primary, or he has completely lost touch with reality (and is in serious need of therapy).
Poll after poll has shown that Hillary Clinton has a huge lead among Democrats, and the nomination is hers for the asking. Now a new poll verifies what all the others have shown, that Hillary has a crushing lead. It is the New England College Poll of New Hampshire Democrats, and it provided the following numbers:
Hillary Clinton...............65%
Joe Biden...............10%
Elizabeth Warren...............5%
Andrew Cuomo...............4%
Deval Patrick...............3%
Unsure...............13%
Meanwhile, when the college polled New Hampshire Republicans, it showed the Republican nomination has no clear favorite. Here are those numbers:
Marco Rubio...............17%
Jeb Bush...............16%
Rand Paul...............15%
Chris Christie...............12%
Paul Ryan...............12%
NOTE -- The poll among Democrats had a 5.5 point margin of error, while the poll of Republicans had a 5.3 point margin of error.
