I feel as though some people don't realize that a candidate's floor is the absolute minimum that the candidate is looking at considering facing a good opponent, etc. I don't know how one could put Oregon or Delaware or Connecticut in Sanders' floor here.

Mine:


Under what circumstances is a Republican victory in Delaware possible?

The one given by the OP...  Try not to let your rampant political bias affect your thinking, but a good GOP ticket combined with a bad Sanders campaign - a self-proclaimed socialist - could almost certainly result in an absolute massacre.
An absolute massacre would almost certainly still have the democratic candidate winning Delaware. Remember, Delaware is one of the most inelastic states in the country. The rest of his map is fine, but I can't really imagine a realistic scenario where any Republican wins Delaware.

I agree, someone who won 11% of Romney Romney voters when he ran for senate has no appeal to the center.

Looking at the Vermont electorate to gauge the nation isn't going to work.
Even in a state as (atlas) red as Vermont, winning over 11% of Republicans is no small feat, especially for someone who apparently has no crossover appeal.
