Yes, and in case you haven't noticed the pattern the party holding the white house generally loses seats in the mid-terms. Reference earlier observation that less than 37% of the population could even be bothered to get off their asses and vote in the 2014 mid-terms.
You have far too great an expectation of your fellow citizens.
I'm not saying this will happen. I'm just saying it can, and it wouldn't surprise me that much from a voter base that would actually elect a non-establishment underdog like Sanders.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
