Her and Sanders are within each other's margin of error in both states. As for Nevada and the South, sure Sanders has improved but Hillary is still ahead by quite a bit. She's still got some work to do, but I don't think Sanders will be the nominee.

If Sanders wins in Iowa and New Hampshire, combined with his campaigning at black colleges in South Carolina, he is about to make Hillary feel the Bern.

And yet Hillary is still winning the majority of support from Blacks and other PoC.

Somewhat. Her 300+ delegate vote lead makes a pretty good heat shield.

Maybe, maybe not. Hillary isn't going to look too appealing if she loses the first two primary elections and struggles in South Carolina.

I think they will shift allegiance if results show strong voter support for Bernie. Superdelegates shouldnt be taken so serious at this early stage IMO before a single ballot has been cast.

Bernie opening up a 14 point lead in NH. Wow, that is some impressive numbers.

Neither will Bernie, if he loses all three. Not sure what point you're trying to make.

I agree that if Bernie gets demolished in all three states, things look terrible, but luckily that is not the case and we can be really hopeful that we will indeed have a candidate who has a 40 year old track record of standing up for the little guy and not be beholden to big money special interests that wants to reduce the standard of living of ordinary Americans, like we have seen over the decades.

Bernie has opened up a 14 points already in NH in the latest poll and the majority of the voters there say they have definitely decided who to vote for. And Bernie increasing turnout as a result of energizing people hasnt been factored in either. And he is already leading Trump by 20 points in NH and leading strongly in Iowa too. So we should be hopeful.

Lol, this might just be another Game Change as in 2008, when Obama won the Iowa caucus (yes, folks, that was the "game change" in the book, not Palin), and Hillary came flying out of the hotel bedroom with her robe flapping when she heard Bill and her team gasping at the TV.
