So far, Bernie Sanders has done very well, hanging in there with Hillary Clinton, virtually tying her in Iowa and trouncing her in New Hampshire, and while polls have been scarce in Nevada, the latest poll has him about even with her heading into the caucus on Saturday.

That being said, after Nevada, the race heads into the south, and if the polls are to be believed, Sanders is in a world of hurt in which he may not be able to free himself of. PPP did 12 polls in the Super Tuesday states on March 1st, and Hillary leads in 9 of them. Here are the numbers.

Alabama, Clinton 59, Sanders 31
Arkansas, Clinton 57, Sanders 32
Georgia, Clinton 60, Sanders 26

Louisiana, Clinton 60, Sanders 29
Michigan, Clinton 50, Sanders 40
Mississippi, Clinton 60, Sanders 26
Tennessee, Clinton 58, Sanders 32
Texas, Clinton 57, Sanders 34
Virginia, Clinton 56, Sanders 34

The three other races are Oklahoma, where Clinton leads 46-44, Massachusetts where Sanders leads 49-42 and Vermont, Sanders home state where he leads 89-10.

Bernie Sanders has acquitted himself very well, and has done better than a lot of people expected him to, but as the race enters March, and if the polls hold, reality is going to slap him in the face and rather hard.
