Sanders, Trump, Carson tied for FIRST place in Republican primary choice in Vermont

This was reported on late Friday night, and probably slipped by many people unnoticed, myself included.

(Go to 2:20 in the video for the Vermont GOP polling.)

Another link to the info here.

Reiterating that this is the REPUBLICAN side of the equation. Pretty impressive.

Bernie has great crossover appeal.

By George, it's looking like we're reaching the point where We The People ain't gonna take it any more.

Both from disaffected righties and Paulites.

Hillary has absolutely no crossover appeal and has always been a lightening rod for hate from the right. I don't think her supporters realize how much crossover Bernie has.

I also think her supporters do not realize how fed up the voting public is with the status quo.
Both parties are reflecting this "fed up" factor in different ways: GOP in their polling front runners, and DEM in Bernie's surge and HRC's diminishing numbers.
