Some interesting tidbits here. Especially some of the comments.

"At the same time the Republican party was moving "south and west" I can tell you Vermont was moving dramatically left, inundated by radical liberals and aging hippies from the urban areas to our south. Have a look at the sources of campaign funds for Vermont elections and ask yourself why so much of the money electing (buying?) our political leaders comes from New York City."

"Bernie Sanders is a dope from Brooklyn and Vermont would be better off if he just disappeared. He bought his way through the political system with outside "Hollywood" money. He's a Socialist bum who never had a real job in his life. Real Vermonters, native Vermonters like myself have seen his kind continue to ruin the state from the once proud hard working Yankee tradition to a bunch of misfits and liberal beggers. If there's ever another revolution it may just start here. I've gone from being a supporter of Bush to disgusted with the way he's handled the mideast but if we had more decent people in Congress instead of losers like Sanders we'd have less of a problem."

"Quite Franly, I can't see why Vermont is so against Bush. As a Vermonter myself, I think that while he hasn't done a bang-up job, he has gotten stuck with a lot of crap that should be laid at the feet of congress; people hate Bush for starting a war. Fact is, Congress voted to start it. Anyhow, I believe that Sanders should get over himself; If he visit's Vermont, people will see him as a private citizen- they will see the man, not the office."
