The Moderate Pileup, and the Sanders Path to the Nomination

The results of the Iowa and New Hampshire contests amount to a strategic victory for Bernie Sanders, fracturing his opposition and opening a path for him to win the nomination.

But the results do not leave him in a dominant position. His support in national polls remains in the low-to-mid 20s, leaving many candidates within striking distance of overtaking him if the race should break their way. CONT.
