Consider that Bill Clinton got just 3 percent of the vote in the 1992 Iowa caucus before going on to win the presidential election later that year. Four years before that, the Democrat’s eventual nominee, Mike Dukakis, came in third place in Iowa.

The bigger tests will be New Hampshire, Michigan, South Carolina, and Florida later this month. Whoever is doing well at the end of Jan will be judged viable on Super Tuesday (Feb 5).

Whoever is trailing badly after Feb 5 is finished as a candidate
