All of the above. (Especially those damn Canadian TV broadcasts..grrrrr)
Vermont has had a 'perfect storm' that would push it from being the most Republican state in the Union to a reasonably Democratic bastion in Presidential elections.
The Yuppies moving there from manhattan have made the Burlington area especially Democratic. There has been somewhat of a partisan shift, though the far eastern counties do still trend Republican as they always have done. I think a non-southern candidate for the GOP would make the state more competitive again.
They do have a whacko socialist member of Congress.... but so did Louisiana in the 30's. (Huey long)
