Douglas saved his bacon (or tofurky, this being VT) by vetoeing that IRV bill. But it's not over yet. If Douglas falls below 50%, the D leg. will pick Symington.

Vermont Democrats couldn't possibly be that stupid.
So it would be more intelligent for them to back the incumbent Republican or an independent?

It would be more intelligent to support whomever gets the most popular votes, no?

They can very credibly make the argument in the case of a, say, 40R-35D-25P result that the people preferred a Democrat.
Yeah, but what are the chances that Douglas drops that many points from 2006?

Thats nothing. In 2006 5% of the voters in the GOP primary voted for a guy that wanted to legalise Marijuana
