Jeffords' retirement sets up scramble for top offices

Jeffords' retirement sets up scramble for top offices

Within an hour of Jeffords' announcement, U.S. Rep. Bernie Sanders staked out his own ground and all but declared his own candidacy for the soon-to-be-vacated Senate seat.

Political insiders were practically giddy at the possibilities because it could lead to an upheaval in a majority of the statewide offices...


One name NOT in the mix is Howard Dean.

Assuming Sanders runs the Democrats are not expected to field a candidate, which could lead to a really strange independent-to-independent handoff. I was kind of curious to see how Jeffords' party switch would have played with the voters, but looks like we'll never know.
