How can sane people really vote for a person

78. Yes he is known as the amendment King

But how many of those amendments went on to become laws? That's where the real push lies.

During his time in the senate two of his bills became laws: S 885 renames a post office in Vermont.
S 893 gives a cost of living adjustment to veterans and their families. Admirable but is that really a hard sell?

His greatest legislative accomplishment - again admirably aiding veterans - added funding to the ACA for veterans to go outside of the VA for health care services. It's noted that the real push was in getting 11 already liberal democrats to sign on to the provision. They were voting no because the ACA eliminated single payer option.

Think about that: the jewel in his legislative crown was negotiating to get liberal senators to vote a little less liberally, and vote FOR the ACA.

Not what I'd call a tough slog.
