Congratulations are in order for Bernie Sanders and his supporters. A couple of weeks ago, he was drawing close to Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire -- and now he has taken a 7 point lead in that early primary state. I'm not surprised. New Hampshire borders Sanders' home state of Vermont, and if he is a viable candidate, he should be able to win there.
But that's all of the good news for Sanders. Four other state polls were released and a national poll, and he trails big in all of them -- 34 points in Iowa, 33 points in Florida, 30 points in Ohio, 26 points in Pennsylvania, and 32.7 points in the national poll. Sanders has been unable to find any traction at all outside of Vermont and New Hampshire.
