I would go further and say the Democratic Party is not ready for Sanders. He has a great stump speech of totally unrealistic proposals not supported by the majority of the country and has never worked effectively with anyone in Congress, leaving him with few friends among the Dems -- and he is a self-described Democratic Socialist, not a Democrat.. Should he win NH, as expected, and upset Biden in SC, there will be a huge uproar as the "Party" decides how to counter Sanders. Party leaders will probably coalesce around one of the moderate candidates or go all-in on Bloomberg. The storm within the Dems may move an alternative to the front, or, such overt moves may backfire, propelling Sanders even further ahead.
