A few things that really caught my eye regarding the CT race.
Edited on Tue Aug-08-06 06:38 PM by Lastlaughin08
1. All of a sudden the RW talking whores that trash Democrats every minute of every hour of every day are all for Joe Lieberman. They paint Lamont as a nobody and a darling of the far left - A kook anti-war guy that no one had heard of six weeks ago. They say Joe is just a fair-minded guy that deserves another term. That's because Lieberman has become so very close to Bush and they need every bit of support they can get for this administrations failed policies, regardless of party affiliation. But they also know this is a referendum on George Bush and his horrible record. They are scared about November, and don't you think they aren't.

2. Lieberman evidently saw fit to make the rounds of the RW radio and TV programs in an effort to drum up support. (I didn't actually see or hear any of these appearances, but judging from posts here he did just that) To go into the enemy's den and turn your back on the very same Democrats that put you in office three times is reprehensible. If he thinks he'll benefit from phony, superficial support by the RW hatemongers he's going to learn a painful lesson.

3. Mindless fools like Rush Limbaugh are trying to minimize this campaign as a tiny race in a small insignificant blue state (He said that today) These high paid clowns are whistling past the graveyard. If Lamont wins they will know for certain the mood of the voters has changed and the RW is in bigger trouble than they already are.


George Bush is radioactive and the now-famous kiss hopefully will have claimed it's biggest victim so far by later this evening.

Go Ned and the good people of Connecicut!

2. this caught my eye..earlier on tweety he asked a young guy with
Lieberman sign if he voted ..the kid said no and tweety asked why not..the kid ( college age) said no he was republican..now with Maxine waters on ..tweety asked another college kid his opinion of Lieberman..and the kid standing next to him was the republican kid from the earlier show..but tweety didn't ask this kid if he voted..because tweety knew damn well that kid was a rethug..

this is a gotcha moment on tweety!!

but he did ask a kid on Lamonts side if he voted ..that kid said no because he was from MASS.

so here you have it folks..tweety never asked the republicans why they didn't vote but where there getting air time for joementum!

3. The Repukes definitely love Lieberman. He undermines
Democratic positions every chance he gets.

5. This is a referndum on Bush and Republicans.
The Lamestream Media wants to frame it as Joe's position on Iraq, but it really is the 1st shot for the voter to express their disgust with Bush-Republicanism. Joe is standing in for W. Assuming Ned wins, I think the Republican incumbants are going to be sent a pretty clear signal that the mid-terms are not going to be a kind to them.

6. They can deny it all they want, but it certainly will be if Lamont wins.
