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.
