Surprised? Naaaa.....

No Democrat is excited about Hillary Clinton and all the baggage she carries into an election including upcoming indictments. As for Bernie Sanders, any Republican will be thrilled for him to be the nominee.

GOP sets another turnout record, Democrats’ numbers slide
By Stephen Dinan - The Washington Times - Sunday, February 21, 2016

SPARTANBURG, S.C. | Republicans’ turnout streak continued, with GOP voters shattering their South Carolina primary record Saturday night.

With almost all precincts reporting, more than 737,000 votes had been counted. That was more than 20 percent higher than 2012, when about 603,000 voted.

It follows record GOP turnout in Iowa’s caucuses and New Hampshire’s primary earlier this month.

By contrast, Democrats’ turnout has tumbled from its 2008 records in all three contests, including Saturday’s caucuses in Nevada. About 80,000 voters took part in the caucuses, with was 33 percent less than 2008’s level.

Republicans hold their caucuses Tuesday in Nevada, while Democrats shift to South Carolina next weekend.
