Political pollster John Zogby talks politics ahead of Super Tuesday. On the Democratic side, John says if the polls are to be believed, Hillary will have a big day tomorrow. However, many are skeptical following Michigan - where polling showed she'd beat Bernie, but Sanders came up with the win. For the GOP, John Kasich is polling well in Ohio while Trump seems primed to take all 99 delegates in Florida.
