Lamont Stars At Activists' Meeting In Washington
Submitted by davidswanson on Sun, 2006-06-18 01:59. Elections

WASHINGTON -- It's one thing to be the darling of the liberal bloggers; it's another to pull bodies into a room.

Ned Lamont did that Wednesday as 350 progressive activists crammed a hotel meeting room to witness the Senate challenger's first big national appearance.

After basking in three standing ovations before, during and after his nine-minute speech Wednesday, Lamont was asked by his new-found fans to pose for pictures.

"We really want to see Joe Lieberman defeated," said Lois McCarthy, a Chestertown, Md., retiree.

"I'm going to send this out to the blog right away," promised Holly Johnson, a physical therapist from Byron, Ill.

Lamont was touted by activists at the Take Back America Conference as a man on a mission, their best hope for sending a loud anti-war message to Democrats and Republicans.

6. Lieberman is not a Democrat, he is a Bush supporter
And the little AIPAC shithead is going to run against the Democratic nominee:

For now, Lieberman is operating on two tracks, emphasizing his intention to win the primary, yet refusing to rule out becoming a petitioning candidate. He insists he has yet to contemplate what lies ahead.

"I'm not doing anything about it," Lieberman said Friday after greeting diners at the Olympia Diner in Newington. "I'm going forward to an Aug. 8 primary with a lot of confidence."

So, one reporter asked as Lieberman moved toward his car, does that mean he is he ruling out bypassing the primary?

Lieberman turned. He smiled, paused briefly, and said, "No."

Then he was gone.

7. Lieberman hasn't been a Democrat for a long time...
I would love to see him defeated soundly.

Joe needs to go!
