| 55. " Lamont was endorsed as the candidate." |
|
eh, well, Lamont's support from the Washington Establishment Democrats was lukewarm at best. They f'ing hate us, they hate our candidates in the primaries, they sabotage everything we do, and despise the fact that they have to pay even minimal lip service to our goals and aspirations. We are the problem in their view.
