Nate Silver has laid it all out.

Nate has laid out a side-by-side comparison between the vote spread Bernie needs to hit in order to tie for the nomination, and the spread he's currently polling at. What does it look like? Well, here are a few examples . . .

Vermont: Bernie needs +83, has +76 (for a deficit of -7).

SC: Bernie needs -20, has -25 (-5).

Massachusetts: Bernie needs +11, has +3 (-8).

Tennessee: Bernie needs +2, has -25 (-27).

Michigan: Bernie needs +4, has -16 (-20).

Ohio: Bernie needs +1, has -13 (-14).

And so on. I'll let you take a look at the remaining Super Tuesday states for yourselves.
