Honestly, I can see Sanders retiring. He'll be 77 in 2018, and with this campaign he's guaranteed that he'll be able to continue as a spokesman for the activist left in America even if he no longer holds elective office. Running a presidential campaign does not mean you are still enthused to serve in a legislature (if anything, it may mean the opposite). I think Sanders may be among the likeliest 2018 retirements. His seat is safe D (probably more specifically safe Peter Welch), of course.
