Will "Big Dawg" Clinton be stumping CT with Lamont?
I'm curious because Bill says he supports Lamont as the Democratic nominee, yet he told Larry King a few weeks ago that CT was a "win-win" for Dems because if either Lamont or Lieberman win they will vote with the Dems to organize the senate. But I still don't think we can trust Joe Lieberman to do that given his support from the GOP heirarchy in this election--especially if the Democrats hold a one-seat majority after the election.

But I do recall that about a week before the primary Lieberman was behind in the polls by ten points and Bill came into CT to do a rally for him in Waterbury. It was a successful event and Lieberman ended up closing the gap in that last week losing the primary by four-points.

Given that the polls indicate that Joe is still getting up to a third of the democratic vote in CT, I think Bill should come into the state in these final weeks for an event with Lamont--has anybody heard if this is on his schedule?

1. Wondering

Just who has been campaigning for Ned? I've heard very little about the
big wigs in the democratic party being there for Ned. Makes me sad because I
think they're secretly all behind the independent asshole Lieberman winning.
If I'm mistaken and our party has been coming out for Ned I apologize, it's just
that I haven't read or seen anyone other than I believe Clark being there for
him. Jackson and Sharpton are not exactly the Clintons or John Kerry, not that
I don't appreciate their efforts.

2. I think Clark and Edwards have stumped with Lamont (maybe Kerry too?)
and Hillary gave a $5000 donation to his campaign but I'm not sure if she has done an event with him?

3. I sure hope he will do that

I think old joe lost his mind when he started supporting bushco on the war and other things and it's time for him to go. I don't trust him as for as I could throw my motorcycle <750lbs.>, not far.

4. I can not understand the attachment that the Clintons have
to Lieberman, especially after the way he stabbed them in the back during the Monica thing. After the way they stumped for Lieberman in the primaries, I think they really owe it to Lamont to give him some meaningful support.
