New polling out over the past 24 hours suggests that Bernie Sanders is in a dead heat with Hillary Clinton in Iowa. Those results come as Clinton is upping her attacks on Sanders over his past votes on gun control measures, and Sanders appears to be getting more aggressive about Bill Clinton and his role in his wife’s campaign. Oh, by the way, the Iowa caucuses are also only 21 DAYS AWAY! With so much going on in the Democratic primary, I reached out to Tad Devine, chief strategist for Sanders’s campaign, to get his take on the state of the race — and how his candidate can win. Our conversation, conducted via email and edited only for grammar and flow, is below. CONT.
