No, not really.

As Senator has been saying, Sanders's weakness is electoral math, not skeletons in the closet - he's a good candidate to win the industrial midwest, but not so much for Florida. His strength will be his appeal to a portion of Trump's base, who aren't ideological, but hate Washington and politics as usual and think the system is rigged to benefit a small group of elites to their detriment (because it quite frankly is).

Well, that and the theory that young people don't vote because no one ever gets nominated who appeals to them. No better test of that theory than Sanders.
