Have you donated to Ned Lamont?

[Eric J in MN]

He's the Democrat challenging Senator Joe Lieberman (D-CT) in the primary.

I've been told that Ned Lamont doesn't have a chance of winning, but I hope he'll do well enough to send a message to Democrats with pro-Bush tendencies not to ignore people like us.

13. You mean he's not? Why the fuck not?

14. I found an article which says Lamont is using his own money.

========
According to his latest fundraising filing, Lamont has collected $341,111 from 4,337 donors, more than 90% giving through the Internet. He added $371,500 of his own money to that kitty. Of course, Lieberman has almost $5 million in his campaign account.

4. Not only have I donated $, I have donated time and helped Ned garner NOW's

endorsement. I'm a board member of CT NOW and was part of the process that convinced CT NOW to recommend Ned Lamont be endorsed by NOW PAC.

9. Thanks, Larkspur!

I know you have your passion in this and it would send such a message to ol LIEberman and the rest of the cons if he got retired.

16. You tell us....

[Eric J in MN]

19. I don't know exactly, but people who run for US Senate tend to be rich.

18. We Lamont donors call our donations an "investment" in our future senator

and Dem Party.

Lamont's campaign is not an ego trip for the Greenwich businessman. It's about taking our Democratic Party back from faux Dems, like Joe Lieberman.

20. Right On.
