So I don't know what's going to happen in Connecticut. There's enough I don't know about Connecticut politics to fill a warehouse.

But something profound has already happened there -- and the geography is incidental. Can I, you ask, maybe imagine other places where the progressives might gang up and give the public actual choices? Honest people who can tell the truth, win elections and take back this whole everloving country?

Let the sellouts be on notice either way:

DSCC will back CT Dem nominee

In a serious blow to Sen. Joseph Lieberman's (D-CT) reelection campaign, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee is likely to back the winner of the Democratic primary in Connecticut, meaning that Lieberman may be left without national allies for campaign money.

A senior Democratic party official confirmed that the DSCC is unlikely to back Lieberman should he lose the primary to Ned Lamont, a more progressive contender in Connecticut who has garnered support from bloggers and has catalyzed his campaign around Lieberman's aggressive position on Iraq.

You see, this isn't infighting. It's much, much cooler than infighting. It's also a proud Colorado tradition, from fiery Dean/Miles precincts in 2004 to the coinage of silver at sixteen to one.

So to arms, underdogs! The epilogue to this story is that you might not always be...

This blog is interesting because of who it doesn't mention. But we all know why Mr. Franklin wrote it.
  
Salazar & Lieberman. Birds of a feather!
By John H Kennedy Jul 6th 2006 at 3:57 pm EDT
Given the need to win the House and Senate in '06, we probably don't have the time or resources to deal with a DINO here in Colorado.

Sooner or later we need to make it clear to elected Democrats that our support comes with a catch, the elected one must support the will of the voters and party which got him elected... or no more support.

Or the senator may be left without Colorado allies for campaign money., and may have the activists in the street campaigning against him.

Will both Lieberman and Salazar jump to the GOP if their personal needs trump the voters needs?
