Guest guest Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 He might not win the senate seat though. Many believe that if Lieberman runs as an independent, he could still retain his seat. Many republicans might vote for him because they'll consider him the lesser of two evils.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 Possible. However, more than 40% of registered voters in Connecticut are independent. The Republican, Schlesinger, recently was found to have used a made-up name for some gambling charges at one of the Connecticut casinos. Recently, Lieberman polled 51%, Lamont 27% and Schlessinger in the low teens. If Lieberman stays in and has enough cash, he may very well win. Note that the electorate is very anti-incumbent, but also very anti-party. Re: Connecticut He might not win the senate seat though.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 This is an interesting situation. Why would Joe Lieberman be getting hammered from both parties? The same day he was chairing the GOP Platform Committee, Republican Senate Leader Bill Frist published an article with Sen. Hillary Clinton promoting what they called the "emerging bi-partisan consensus" on health care. They said both parties agreed to increase federal "investment" in health technology and resources and to set federal health "quality standards." How quickly things change in Washington -- from united GOP opposition to Hillarycare to a consensus on her principles! Truly, "we" are all big government conservatives now, including Mrs. Clinton who cannot wait to get hold of the new powers granted her by this bi-partisan consensus when her time comes to make the decisions.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 I'd still prefer Lieberman to win. He's been a consistently good senator, delivered plenty for his state. Even though one might disagree with his stand pertaining to a specific issue.there isn't a polotician alive whom everyone will agree with all of the time. Lamont will be a yes man flowing with the tide. I personally think that Lieberman is strong enough to be an independent. It would release him from the typical shackles of party loyalty...........Hey maybe that group of 14 senators should all run as independents. Then if elected, they could really debate and vote issue specific. That might be the way out of the current political staus quo quagmire Take care nH <stratpat@...> wrote: Possible.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 Both parties want to take away your personal choice regarding healthcare (for different ideological reasons), set up electronic tracking systems, and require/force medical treatments that they approve to limit your choice and maximize their power and their contributors' profits. Frist and Hillary are two sides of the same coin. Re: Connecticut He might not win the senate seat though. Many believe that if Lieberman runs as an independent, he could still retain his seat.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 I hated to see Joe lose, but I think we are missing the most positive aspect of this, which is that a grassroots movement can make a difference, we can win, and this is a fight worth firhting. > I live in CT -- is anyone involved with autism legislation knocking on > Ned Lamont's door?
