Democrats’ soul on line in two races

I really cannot be incited to give a damn about Lieberman. When he gave the "one more time like that, and I'm really gonna get mad..." speech on the floor of the Senate, concluding that he couldn't support impeachment - he really disqualified himself. So he's a moderate Democrat who is a realist on foreign policy. I just can't see why we should care if he's replaced with a poster child for why the Democratic party cannot be trusted with national security. Sometimes you win by losing - that's the way this situation looks to me. But then again, my county went 4:1 Bush in '04.

This may end up as a blessing in disguise. Maybe the sane people of (dis)connecticut will understand that putting a nutcase traitor in the U.S. Senate from their state might make them all look like nutcase traitors.

[Medicine Warrior]

Out of the frying pan and into the hottest corner we can hope.

[Iam1ru1-2]

(CORRECTION) ....all look like nutcase traitors, and will vote GOP for the first time in their lives.

Lieberman is a garden variety communist demorat. He just happens to support Israel a little more fervently than most of his fellow rats. No great loss.

[GoBucks2002]

I think a lot of what this article said about McKinney could be said for Lamont. He, too, is a nut. He won't vote much differently than Liebermann, except maybe on national security.

If I lived in either state and could cross over, I would vote McKinney and Lamont.

[msnimje]

But, But....Lamont "never heard of the blogs."

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

You said it. I'd rather see the true colors Dims win than the sneaky bastards who hide behind "progressive" and "moderate" labels.

[okie01]

IF Liebermann loses
AND
the 'Rats regain control of Congress...

...the country is flat screwed.

[PattonFan]

Democrats’ soul on line in two races

Democrats have souls? Don't joke with me.

[phoenix0468]

The second one ain't gonna happen.

LOL! I'm sorry EEE, but, no democrat hides behind labels..they try..but we all know Every Democrats true colors..they are ALL slime.

Dopes not matter what democrat gets into office where..they all follow the pied piper of the party..they are truly all in lockstep

A Dem is a Dem is a Dem..

Wally , losers of elections all share one thing, the winners of those elections get to rule. And then we get a Clinton.Me, I`d rather win.

[bybybill]

If you want to lose lunch, just watch the Lamont 5min.campaign spot. What his supporters want and demand is so far from reality and common sense. But, thats what makes them Democrats.
All of them want to cut and run from Iraq. Wonder if they think Israel should follow suit?

[ansel12]

"I would vote McKinney and Lamont."



I'm with you, let chaos reign among the Dem's.

[quantim]

It's a non-issue. Who cares about a leftist mini-state, as it does not represent the nation. Hannity needs a beeaatch slap for sucking up to Algore's #2. He's not reasonable because of only one issue, he's a senator, therefore compromiser. He can't ever be trusted. Ever.

Why republicans defend this nitwit is beyond me.

Any American Jew that votes for a Democrat in any national race is a disgrace to their heritage. The Far Left has aligned itself with our enemies and are anti sematic this is no coincidence that he is polling badly being of Jewish Heritage. In any event if Americans are really falling sway to the lefts propaganda machine and if the GOP polling numbers are true then it is inevitable that the Left will regain the house and senate in NOV and have us out of Iraq. The Shiites in Iran and Iraq will unify, arms transports will have no problem going from Iran thru Iraq into Syria. No conquest of nations is needed because these nations will fall due to our lack of resolve. These are Historic times in my mind likened to the mid 1930's and the rise of power of the Nazi propaganda machine in Europe. Islamo-Facists are rising to power the Liberals again are on the wrong side of history and have now sided with our enemy and they refuse to see the complex nature of the terrorist regimes and the threat that the rise of Islamo-Facism is to us and our allies.
