We all know Clinton's worst state will be Vermont but how about Sanders? Will his poor performance yesterday be replicated across the Deep South?

I would expect Mississippi or Arkansas to be more lopsided.

Actually Georgia and Arkansas look worse than South Carolina.

Arkansas does not have a big black population. If Clinton's were not from there, I would have rated it as a toss-up like Okla, Sanders is doing 35-40% in some polls, so no it's not bad. Surprisingly Clinton does not have a huge base among whites in Arkansas like Sanders has in Vermont.

Mississippi is bad as is Louisiana with a bigger black population but I doubt 75% Clinton bad. Georgia maybe a 70% Clinton state as well.

Virgin Islands is like 60% Black or something so expect a 80% Clinton lead there. South Carolina would be the worst IMO, Georgia 2nd.

She's been polling the best in Georgia I believe up 50%, where Sanders has no ad or ground prescience unlike in SC where he brought in the Calvary and mustered up 26%.

I doubt it. He actually spent a lot of time campaigning in South Carolina, and I doubt he'll focus as much attention on the other Deep South states.

The polls say it should be, but the polls were also immensely off in SC, so we'll see. I have a feeling Mississippi at the very least will be worse, and possibly Alabama and Georgia as well.

Mississippi and Alabama will definitely be worse.  Louisiana and Georgia have more white liberals but probably will be worse too.
