New Poll: Vermont Senate: Sanders 55% Tarrant 40% (plus congress race)
Sanders holds a 55-40 lead, down from 56-35 in late July in the Senate race in Vermont.

Democrat Welch holds a narrow 48-45 point lead over Republican Rainville for the Congressional seat being vacated by Sanders.

In Gov race, GOP Gov. Douglas holds a huge 59-32 point lead over his Democratic opponent.

1. Not good news,.....
---- Vermont is going to be an important state in restoring Constitutional authority in this country, as intended by the original framers,.... Why is the republican governor leading by so much? Isn't this Howard Dean's state, after all?

2. Douglas is a RINO and Vermont is traditionally a GOP state...
In the same way that the south is traditionally Democratic. A Governor's political party doesn't always represent the state's politics. Wyoming's Democratic Governor will be easily re-elected this year.

4. Douglas swept into power on the "Civil Unions" thing. (NT)

5. Negative campaigning.
Tarrant has been covering the media with ads implying Bernie is sympathetic to child abductors, child molesters and drug dealers, all the while ignoring the plight of working, single moms. In the end, Bernie's going to win and Tarrant's going to be down $10,000,000 of his own money.
