Those towns are pretty snotty aren't they.... New Canaan. It used to be the next station to heaven.. Used to be.

I drive through there with some frequency.It still looks pretty "comfortable" to me,if ya catch my drift.

During the few minutes that it takes to drive through on the Merritt Parkway,I see more Ferraris than I see in five years around the suburbs of Boston.

If Joe has indeed pledged to caucus with Democrats if he wins as an independent, then by all means CT Republicans should definitely remove Mr. Screw Up and work to elect a Republican candidate.

So far as I can tell, there will be no turnover of a seat if Lieberman stays, and with the exception of national defense, no change in how that Senator would vote, whether it be Whiny Lefty Dude or Dad From Alf.

Let's face it, it is a win for us no matter what happens. If Dad From Alf wins, the left wing blogger nutjobs go into a rage. If Whiny Lefty Dude wins, it drags the Democratic Party even further into the black hole and pretty much kills their chance of ever winning back Congress or the White House (until the next Bill Clinton comes along).

I'm with you. I wouldn't vote for Lieberman under any circumstances. If I lived in Connecticut, I would vote for the Republican candidate. If he was a crook, or as far left as Arnold Schwartzenburger, then I wouldn't vote for the GOP, either. I'd look for the person who came closest to my views, and if no one is even close, then I would not vote.

But I would not vote for Lieberman, even if he and Lamont are close. I don't care whether the Dems are leftist or moonbat leftist, they are still leftists, and I don't vote for them. I consider the vote tantamount to an endorsement, and the winner in Connecticut can rightly say, "I got 55 percent of the vote, so I represent the will of my state". If the winner gets 44 percent in a split election, he gets the seat but not that argument. And not my vote, if he's a Dem, and will vote for Harry Reid as Majority Leader.

I do when allot of the democratic caucus is turning on Joe, and now there is talk of pulling him from committees and trying to take senority away if he wins in Nov. Not many men are above forgetting things like that without holding ill feelings. I think Joe will not forget or forgive and neither would I.

[D-Chivas]

John Kerry only won this state by a 10% margin in 2004. With Lieberman and Lamont splitting the liberal vote, this is a great opportunity for Republicans to add a seat to their senate majority.

Put down the hookah and meet reality.

[Defiant]

Lieberman will caucus with the Dems in order to get decent committee assignments. They will cozy up with him in order to have an additional vote in the Senate, particularly if the majority is tenuous either way. He will be just as liberal as before, moreso if the Dems get the majority.

[KC_Conspirator]

The Whiff of Trollism is in the air.

[Sashasasha]

Lieberman has definitely stated he will caucus with the Democrats. One of the few things I will give him credit for, is that he has stuck to his word about this race and his support of the War on Terror. Other than that, he sucks.

[MonroeDNA]

Ned?

[DuxFan4ever]

Maybe a whiff of "trollism", but the idea is worth considering.
As for people with new accounts being trolls, you'd be surprised at how many of us long-time members have run afoul of an admin-mod on a bad day.

[pogo101]

If if this particular GOP candidate were backed to the hilt, he couldn't win this particular race. We'd just throw it to Lamont.

[jrooney]

Yes he did say that but that was before the kos crowd and the far left libs in the senate have been pushing for retaliation against Joe.

If the donk caucus does not turn on him and he maintains committee seats and senority, he will caucus with the donks most of the time; however, I have not faith in the intelligence of the kos crowd or the donk party in general. They will go after Joe even if some senior donks disagree with this tactic. Harry Reid met with the kos crowd giving them some legitmacy in donk circles Stupid, stupid move. Donks are too stupid to save themselves from forever being the minority party.

[thinkthenpost]

I think any viable Repub should have run in the Primary and been select as the Republican candidate for the General Election, short of that do the same a Joe and get on the General as an Independent. I'm not a big fan of switching after the primary.

[proudpapa]

You obviously didn't get the playbook.

We want Lamont and Lieberman to bash each other between now and November. We want money normally spent by liberals in states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Minnesota and Washington to go to Connecticut.

We want the democrats as divided as possible. For as long as possible.

So sit back and get the popcorn ready.

[Sashasasha]

That is a good point, divided they fall. But I still think Republicans should at least endorse Schlesinger if nothing else. Why get tainted by Dem stink?

[Paleo Conservative]

A vote for Schlesinger is a vote for Lamont!

[MEGoody]

Not gunna happen

No, but it's too bad they won't even consider it. Of course, a 'strong Republican candidate' in Connecticut can mean something completely different than it means in, say, Kansas.

[Paleo Conservative]

Lieberman will caucus with the Dems in order to get decent committee assignments.

The 'RATS are talking about taking away some of his committee assignments and seniority if he wins the seat.

[WhiteGuy]

We ask all Republicans politicians to help the Connecticut Republican candidate win the senate seat up for election on November 7, 2008.

ok

I'm not a politician, I live in Ohio, and we have our own problems with unworthy republican senate candidates here.

perhaps the local comments board would make more sense for you?

[rock58seg]

Of course not! It's Dean's brother.
