The other day, Ned Lament, "the common man, for the common people" donated to himself $8 million.

This is a disgrace. Where are the MoveOn, DUh, and Kos scumbags to fork over the dough?
They need to get off their lazy behinds and help this poor guy Lament out.

Time to call in a favor or two, from his fellow red diaper babies at the foundations.

Apparently when the radical liberal element of the Democratic party is factored in, it seems that the more normal people tend to shun this candidate. Now if they could only dump Dean, Kerry, Kennedy, Murtha, Pelosi etal, they may become a viable poltical party again.

Funny how a factor of 15 is merely "less".

Ned, personally, has all the money he could ever need.

This AP article is a fundraising aid.

Kind of like how cold weather portends global warming...

Note the headline slant - it emphasizes the AP's favored candidate's name, hides and downplays Lieberman as "Rival".

Nope,

Time for Lamont to claim victim status. The RATS are already making excuses for Lamonts loss before the election even takes place.

Odd they didn't put Lieberman's name in the headlines.

Trying to make voters forget he exists?

Typical of liberals. Good at spending other people's money but not their own.

When it comes to opening their wallets, they develop alligator arms.

Lousy tippers, lousy tithers, lousy charity donors (unless it is a "charity" party they can write off on their taxes.)
