6. Sanders wins in Vermont

Which is in my opinion the most liberal state in the nation. I hope he can carry that nationally, but have my doubts. If people are so supportive of liberal ideas, how come Chris Christie gets elected? Or Scott Walker, or Rick Scott? And re-elected after they clearly show what RW scumbags they are? Again my personal feeling is that many people may say they support these things when questioned, but they really aren't very important when it comes time to vote for a candidate who may be diametrically opposed, on the record, to such things.

There are clearly liberals everywhere who are starving for a progressive champion. We see that over and over. Will the rest of the non-brainwashed voters join them?
