But I thought abortion was the going to seal the deal for the rats? (S)

Vermont was always solid Republican until New Yorkers and Assholechusetts started moving there.

Only seven points?
Just make sure only legitimate votes are counted.

But, but, but, only moderates can win in blue states!

Let’s now have a REAL guidepost on how many votes conservative nominees can get in New England.

Conservative nominees for US Senate in Vermont, Connecticut and (likely after tomorrow) New Hampshire.

Conservative nominees for governor in Massachusetts and Maine.

We’ve had ENOUGH of the me-too Republicans (as Goldwater called them)

This is Trafalgar...our most favorable pollster showing us 7 points down here. I don’t think we are winning this one. If we do, then it will be a 2010-2014 type of turnout, which will mean a very favorable November for us. The following are seats we can and should win: GA, PA, OH, WI, NH, AZ and NV. VT is not even on the radar.

Some surprisingly close polls are also out there for Senate seats in CO and WA. If they stay there the red wave hasn’t crested. Winning WA, with all mail in votes and an incumbent D, even one as lame as Patty Murray, would be a political tsunami equivalent of 9.0 on the Cascadia fault. Not that there aren’t plenty of good conservatives east of the Cascades, but there’s plenty of liberals, real and fraudulent, west of them.

I was last in Vermont about 3 years ago. I swear that 99% of the cars I saw had Bernie bumper stickers. And we drove up (and down) I-91 at least 75 miles and we went on other roads as well (it was autumn and we wanted to see the states famous foliage).

It very,very difficult for me to see any Republican winning there...particularly given that 75% of the voters there were born either in New York or Massachusetts (old hippies with gray ponytails...just like Bernie).

“Only” might as well be 43 points behind

Wiki: ,(Leahy retiring. Welch is the one and only US Representative for the state)
“If elected, Welch will become the oldest person ever at the age of 75 to be elected to a first term as a U.S. senator, and only the second Democratic Senator from Vermont, after Leahy”

Leahy only the second Dem sen ever from VT?
