....38 delegates, less than the 44 in Iowa on Monday.

IF he gets even 60% of those 38, his three strongest states will net him only SIX more delegates than Clinton in those three states, the ONLY states in which he is even close.

But even before Vermont votes (on Super Tuesday), Clinton will have out-tallied Sanders in Nevada and South Carolina by roughly 50-30. That means going into Super Tuesday she'll be ahead by 15+ delegates.
