I've lurked at FR for a long time, and finaly registered this AM.
Here in occupied CT, the GOP candidate just ain't gonna win - with or without Joe splitting the democratic vote. He's apparently got some big problems(political and legal) and gets little or no press.
My wife and I have actually discussed forming Republicans for Leiberman. Given the choices - he's definitely the better of the 3 candidates. Believe me - if the Republicans ever had a chance to knock off Leiberman/Lamont - this is the year. It just ain't gonna happen and I'd rather go with Joe, than Looney Lamont.
What do think CT Freepers?
Vote for Lieberman of course.
Hold your nose and vote for Joe.
I'm from Illinois and plan to send Lieberman a letter of support with $ contribution.
Welcome to FR!
This was a topic of discussion in the DUmmie FUnnies yesterday. I'd say that Lieberman has a pretty good chance of winning the election given the number of registered Independents in Connecticut (I'm from Illinois).
What the MoveOn/Soros/DU/KOs crowd haven't realized yet is that 48% of registered Democrats still voted for Lieberman, regardless of his stance on the war. No, this doesn't mean that they all support the war, but they're a pretty good indication of a good Democratic base going into the election. It should be far easier for Lieberman to shore that up with Independents and cross-over Repubs than for Lamont to do so with his far left dogma.
It's going to be interesting to watch.
Your right, the Republican candidate has no chance. Looks like I'll be voting for Joe come Nov.
I can't imagine having Lamont as as Senator.(Todd is bad enough)
I'll even consider putting a sign up to P*ss of the Lamont supporter down the street.
When I lived in CT (most of my life)I voted for one Dem. Joe, just to get rid of Lowell the Wackie Lib. Unfortunately Lowell gave us the state income tax. One reason I moved to NH.
If the newest terrorist plot had been exposed a few days earlier, would Lieberman have pulled it off?
I imagine CT voters of all stripes will vote for Joe.
Welcome to FR.
I'm not from CT, but I echo the sentiments of others.
Vote for Joe.
Support his election however you are able.
BTW, welcome to FR.
I'm from a deep red state, and I say -- stick it to the psychos and vote for Joe.
