Not so much an impossibility in the sense that it literally couldn't be done in a practical sense but it's more a political impossibility. Obama after having the most emphatic presidential campaign victory since Reagan with a democratic super-majority in the Senate still had to scale back his health reforms.

No matter who wins they won't have that kind of near ideal conditions.

Clinton is going to win. She just won Iowa (yes it was close but she's walking out with the most elected delegates and probably most of the supers). Sanders will win NH (which neighbors Vermont) but after those two states the demographics of the states shifts to advantage Clinton (can't see Sanders being competitive in Nevada or SC).
