Clinton 54%
Sanders 29%
O’Malley 3%

So let me get this straight, Bernie Sanders is doing significantly worse in Massachusetts than he is in Iowa?

It makes sense.  A notably larger fraction of the MA Democratic primary electorate is composed of racial minorities, as compared to Iowa.

And of course remember that, back in 2008, Clinton did far better in both MA and RI than she did in the other New England states.

[Eraserhead]

Morden is correct.

This is actually quite a bit closer than the last MA poll I remember seeing.

Starting to look like Sanders won't be winning any states on Super Tuesday (other than Vermont, of course). He's not even competitive in the states I thought he'd have the best shot in (CO, MA).

It's a long time until March.

Plus, if Sanders can sweep IA and NH, be competitive in NV, and hit 35% in SC, he'll have the momentum on his side, and Clinton's numbers will quickly and substantially decrease across the country.

So... he is doomed then?

Minnesota is on Super Tuesday too though. BRTD will make sure that the North Star State #feelzthebern.

[Mr. Morden]

Yeah, while I wouldn't bet on Sanders winning any Super Tuesday states besides Vermont, I bet the non-Vermont Super Tuesday states in which he does best will be Colorado and Minnesota, primarily because they're caucuses and secondarily because they're in states that he'd be doing relatively OK in even in a primary.  Both of them should be better for him than Massachusetts.

Kennedy clan enthusiasm is behind Clinton this time, and Bernue isnt Obama.
