81. Well, I'd join you in condemning anyone who voted Republican.
And, while I'd vote for Lieberman against a Republican, and would say others should do so too, I can't really condemn those who'd stay home. It would be comparable to the peace Democrats who stayed home in the fall of '68 after their voices were unjustly ignored and silenced at the Chicago convention. It was bad that Nixon won, but the party made it as hard as it could for those people to feel they should show up and vote. Yes, they should have voted, but none of those who did really had the right to ASK them to.
