POLL: Lieberman Approval Tanks in CT (25% approval, 19% approve of health care reform shenanigans)

Lieberman Approval Tanks in Connecticut

A new Public Policy Polling survey in Connecticut finds Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT) with a dismal 25% approval rating while 67% give him bad marks.

Key finding: President Obama's approval rating with Connecticut Republicans is higher than Lieberman's with the state's Democrats.

In addition, Lieberman "managed to antagonize both sides with his actions during the health care debate. Among voters who support the health care bill 87% disapprove of how Lieberman handled it with only 10% supporting it. But by voting for the final product after getting it watered down he also managed to earn the unhappiness of constituents opposed to the bill, 52% of whom say they disapprove of what Lieberman did to 33% in support."

"Overall just 19% of voters in the state say they like what Lieberman did on the issue with 68% opposed."

It will be interesting to see what sort of contortions he pulls and the deathbed connversions he undergoes as he gets closer to 2012.

literally everyone who was remotely paying attention.

At this point, he's the most vulnerable Senator up in 2012.

Now would you please stop electing that piece of shit to the Senate?

I think the entire country agrees he's an insufferable asshole!

Which will be equally popular once the details get out.

.. but don't expect to let that sad bit of reality obscure the fantasy that the POS sham HCR is some kind of "victory" for We The People.

Cue..

"And the Beat Goes On"

thank you for this public service announcement.

... it takes more than broken pretty campaign promises and spin to retain this Progressive's support. I guess others come cheaper... (or maybe they aren't Progressives at all)

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

To read their posts, they should all be out there PRAISING Stinky Joe and Old-Clothes-Man Nelson for their "wonderful" contributions to tis "historic" legislation.

Remember when Max Baucus was the big villain here?

Ah, summer!

that can run against and uproot that insurance company shill?

Here, for example - http://www.registercitizen.com/articles/2010/01/07/news/doc4b45673099747472754107.txt

pretty involved in the Carnahan campaign to get the senate seat of Missouri’s Kit Bond out of repug hands but will throw a bit cash that way if there is a chance of getting rid of that vermin.

MO looks to be the best chance for a Dem pick up this year. Carnahan is strong. It will be interesting to see where McCaskill stands in 2012. She's trying hard to toe the party line while talking a big "moderate" game.

With the shit storm kicking up in the Springfield area with Blunt hogging up all of the limited repug funds, it pretty amusing to watch them whine.

Goodbye Joe,
Me gotta go,
Me oh my oh,

Only my conservative parents.

Let's start the Lamont '12 campaign NOW lol!!!

Time to dump one of the greatest douchebag of democracy.
