Yep, another Goddamned blog: PAUL KRUGMAN: Talk-Show Joe


These DLC and DC Dems are asking for trouble from the Grassroots and Netroots.

If they manage to take back the House and/or Senate, they are going to find out that they cannot do any damn thing they pease anymore.

We are watching them!

They just really have no clue what our numebrs are.

Yep, another Goddamned blog: PAUL KRUGMAN: Talk-Show Joe:

"Friday was a bad day for Senator Joseph Lieberman. The Connecticut Democratic Party's nominating convention endorsed him, but that was a given for an incumbent with a lot of political chips to cash in. The real news was that Ned Lamont, an almost unknown challenger, received a third of the votes. This gave Mr. Lamont the right to run against Mr. Lieberman in a primary, and suggests that Mr. Lamont may even win.

What happened to Mr. Lieberman? Some news reports may lead you to believe that he is in trouble solely because of his support for the Iraq war. But there's much more to it than that. Mr. Lieberman has consistently supported Republican talking points. This has made him a lion of the Sunday talk shows, but has put him out of touch with his constituents, and with reality.

Mr. Lieberman isn't the only nationally known Democrat who still supports the Iraq war. But he isn't just an unrepentant hawk, he has joined the Bush administration by insisting on an upbeat picture of the situation in Iraq that is increasingly delusional."
