The mainstream media proclaimed Hillary Clinton the winner of the first Democratic debate. New polls indicate they were correct, with Hillary’s lead growing. Cenk Uygur, host of the The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

“Two national polls out Tuesday show former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton making significant gains against Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), her chief rival for the Democratic presidential nomination, in the wake of last week’s Democratic primary debate.

An NBC/Wall Street Journal poll finds that Clinton’s standing among Democratic primary voters has improved by 7 percentage points in one month. At the same time, Sanders has dropped 6 points and Vice President Joe Biden, who has not actually said he intends to run for president, has dropped 2 points. Clinton now has 49 percent of the vote, Sanders has 29 percent and Biden has 15 percent. No other Democratic rival captures more than 2 percent.

Without Biden in the mix, Clinton’s lead grows even wider against Sanders (58 percent to 33 percent).”*
