Almost, But Not Quite There

The latest poll in New Hampshire among Democrat primary voters is almost but not quite at the point of rejecting every candidate.  Right now, according to the poll, only Bernie Sanders has more than the 15% needed to get delegates, but he's at just 16%.  The poll also doesn't include Mike Bloomberg.  If Bloomberg is able to get 8% of the NH votes, he could gain enough that Sanders also falls under the 15% mark.  At that point, New Hamshire will select a slate of uncommitted delegates.  Even more important, the New Hampshire voters will be expressing their displeasure at the choices offered in the primary.

Now this is an unlikely outcome.  Still, it's jsut a bit more than 2 months until the primary.  The idea that the leader in this poll is only at 16% is already a sign of just how poor the voters think the choices are.
