If the anti-Douglas forces are united, unlike what usually tends to happen in Vermont, Douglas is in trouble no matter what he vetoes.

I'm not sure how much people in Vermont care about things that don't matter, like pointless technical vetoes to make a statement of one's beliefs.  Besides - Vermont already had a progressive civil union system that the governor approved of.


People in Vermont are weird anyway.

I'm intensely amused that Vermont used to be quite Republican just a decade or so ago.

It's hard to create 20% of the vote out of an issue that was made irrelevant because the legislature overruled his veto...  if his veto actually held, then the advertising would be more effective, but people probably just don't feel affected by such a move by Douglas
