Perhaps. But the new poll was taken online--you don't have to go very far to find tons and tons of negativity on the web. You can even find some around here.

If a Democrat wins the office again, then the Republicans will be in for a rude awakening.

{That's just my opinion.}

I don't want Trump or Hillary. Trump is a blowhard, and Hillary is a corporate puppet.

That bar graph is rather dramatic in showing how the attitude of the public is markedly different toward both of today's candidates from that of the public toward both McCain, and Obama last time. The red bar on the right side was almost nonexistant for both McCain, and Obama. But is stratospherically high for both Clinton, and Trump.

Trump is the least liked politician in U.S. history. Though he isn't a politician in my book since he's never held office of any kind, still won't be even if he somehow becomes POTUS. Hilary is the least liked democrat the party will have ever offered up, if she gets the nomination.

Even Hillary's favorability among democrats has fallen: http://www.gallup.com/opinion/polling-m ... w-low.aspx

Never Hillary, Never Trump!

Trump isn't knowledgeable on the issues so that is pretty scary. I think Hillary has knowledgeable but somehow she is still scary. I think I will find a third party candidate to vote for, even though they have no chance of winning this year. Maybe if they get more support they will have a chance to win in the future.

It is kind of amazing that Hillary would have had the highest negative numbers of any presidential candidate since they started charting that, if Trump hadn't run.

Unlike her husband she little to no lying skills. I remember during her husband's presidency after his speeches I would check my possesions because against all common sense I felt someway, somehow "Slick Willie" had talked me into giving up money or valuables.

It's bizarre when most people are going to select their vote based on who they feel they need to prevent getting into office...Clinton has the edge there b/c she's a moderate Republican while Trump is...well, he's just a scattershot of lies and random statements, but clearly he appeals to the mysteriously missing Libertarians and some non-religious more extreme Republicans.

As unlikable as Clinton is, I think in a head-to-head debate she'll look calm, rational, and sane compared to Trump, who'll come across as the hysterical woman on stage. Unless the heavens give us a miracle in which Bernie gets the Democratic nomination, I think most people will hold their noses, and vote for the lesser of two evils, Hilary Clinton.

None of the Above should be an option on every ballot. And if None of the Above gets the most votes, everybody has to start over again with new candidates.

Oh man! Even everyone in Canada is #feelingthebern. Oh lord! 15$/hr minimum wage and all the socialist policies that perverted nutjob, Bernie is going to enact in the United States. Socialism has failed 100% of the time it has been tried in every country. 15$ an hour minimum wage will make your burger combo cost 20$ instead of 10$. Chances are he will be soft on illegal immigration and crime, and violent crime will go through the roof, and police budgets will be too strained to help the every day citizen.

Taxes will obviously increase, but they will be increased on the millionaires who create middle class jobs, and also everyone else. With higher taxes, there will be less consumer spending, so there will be less government revenue. So taxes will be raised further, and then there will be even less consumer spending, and the economy will go into a negative death spiral, and there will eventually be no money for the so-called social services Bernie is offering, and businesses will close, because no one will have 20$ to spend on a burger. The only people who benefit from Bernie's policies are big businesses who CAN AFFORD THE HIGH TAXES AND THE REGULATION FEES that accompany any left leaning democratic socialist government.

The average employee suffers because there is much less room for entry level employment, if the minimum wage is set so high. This creates a welfare dependent underclass, a serf labour class, a wealthy professional minority, and a very tiny ultra wealthy minority, who controls, monopolizes, and profits from everything. Eventually this welfare dependent class grows, and less people are able to make meaningful contributions to the economy, resulting in business slowdowns, shutdowns, resulting in shortages of essential goods, like in Greece and Venezuela.

A vote for bernie, and your wallet will #feelthebern
