Nobody wants Hillary and Sanders will never get in running as a 'socialist'. All of the polls show the GOP ahead. Trump hasn't even effected the Hispanic vote with his crude comments (although, I don't think he will win).
No polling data supports that; certainly, early polls aren't guarantees of final results, but they are a pretty good indicator of what people want now.
> Sanders will never get in running as a 'socialist'
Perhaps. Certainly he's rightly perceived as an underdog in the Democratic race.
> All of the polls show the GOP ahead.
While early polls aren't particularly useful, that's simply not true. Every 2016 head-to-head poll shows Clinton beating every GOP candidate she is polled against (with the wide lead she currently has in Democratic primary polling, very few pollsters is doing head-to-head polls featuring any of the other Democratic nominees.)

The one Nevada poll usually cited by Trump and his supporters to make that claim [0][1] just shows that (with a very small Hispanic subsample, so wide margin of error on the figures), Trump is the lead candidate among Hispanic Republicans in Nevada by a slightly larger margin than he is the first choice of Nevada Republicans more generally.
