a powerful anti-Lieberman piece

[welshTerrier2]

man, this one has some serious ouch factor ...

i'm pretty much passing this along without comment ... i certainly have Not researched some of the killer allegations ... if true, Smokin' Joe has some serious splainin to do ...

a few of the nasties:
1. voted for bush's Big Oil energy bill
2. received money from ChoicePoint
3. wifey works for the lobbyist firm that authored the bogus pre-war ad about Iraqi soldiers pulling babies from incubators and killing them

got the idea?

CEOs For Lieberman: The Journal-Inquirer recently had a good article about how Lieberman tried to fob off bundled contributions from defense industry contractor employees as "individual contributions" in a fundraising letter to his supporters. The military industrial complex certainly knows how to get it's money's worth, doesn't it?

It should be interesting to watch the arrival of Maxine Waters when she comes to town to stump for Lamont, who was very warmly received in a local African-American church last night. Lieberman, on the other, hand, has alienated African-American voters of Connecticut who claim they haven't seen him for 18 years, and his acceptance of contributions from Choicepoint (the firm that worked hand-in-hand with Katherine Harris to purge African American voters from the Florida voter rolls in 2000) is probably going to speak much louder than any of his claims to have participated in civil rights marches in the 60s that his supporters keep echoing. <skip>

Battle of the Yard Signs: Lieberman is definitely losing. Overheard at an event recently, "If this boils down to a competition over the most lawn signs, it'll be Ned vs. Coldwell Banker."

7. So true about the lawn signs.

I've yet to see one - or a bumper sticker, for that matter, for LIEberman on the shoreline or upstate. Guess he's spending all of his war chest on attack ads

I requested a lawn sign yesterday from Lamont's website and it was on my front porch last night.

11. Apparently, Lieberman doesn't have much campaign organization

I'm guessing because he didn't think he needed a campaign organization, and he's scrambling to make up for lost time. Not a good omen at all for Lieberman.

I remember a basketball coach exhorting his complacent team saying that they couldn't win just by rolling out the ball and showing their uniforms. I don't think Lieberman was on that team, as it appears that he was counting on being "The Senator" to pave his way to re-election.
