Socialist Bernard Sanders ...

[Koblenz]

Here in CT there's a lot of talk of supporting the CT senate primary winner, Lieberman or Lamont. Support the party! But in VT, the opposite is being played out...

[Reaganesque]

At least three other candidates have announced their intention to run for the Democratic nomination in the Sept. 12 primary, but party leaders prefer Sanders to any of them.

So, they prefer a Socialist to three of their own, eh? Not surprising, really.

[Southack]

"State Democratic leaders are spearheading efforts to gather signatures to put Sanders on the ballot as a Democrat, even though Sanders has repeatedly said he would turn down the party's nomination if he wins the primary."

This move shows how much the "Straight Ticket" voting matters to winning elections.

As an Independent, Sanders won't get Democratic Party straight ticket votes.

An injunction needs to prevent the Democrats from co-opting, against his will, Sanders into the Democratic straight ticket ballot selection.

Many a hippie idiot from the Northeast has moved to Vermont since the 60's. Case in point: Howard Dean.

[Taxman]

Is there a Conservative Republican in Vermont who can step in amidst all the LIEberal/Socialist/Marxist inspired chaos and dissention and win?

[expatpat]

but party leaders prefer Sanders to any of them.

Of course they would, Sanders is more left-wing.

The democRAT party is the home of every kind of criminal and pervert imaginable
