------------------------

In Ansonia, Dorothy Bivens held a Lieberman sign on the sidewalk. A Mobile, Ala., resident visiting her daughter, Bivens seemed overcome when Lieberman stopped, shook her hand and thanked her for helping him on her vacation.

"I love Joe Lieberman," she said.

Asked why, her answer did not come from the day's suggested talking points: "Because he supports the president, and I support the president."

...they are just republicans.

1. indeed they are....poor excuses for Americans...

2. Regular

idiot people, yeah, joe..you go.

Maybe joe should carpetbag down there in Alabama..wouldn't be surprised if that's his next move after losing the Dem Primary and his little indy stab.

3. All sorts of Republicans are supporting Holy Joe.

And since Lieberman insists that he's a Democrat, that really oughta tell people something!

[DocSavage]

5. Using

that logic, Mitt Romney, a republican was elected in Massachussetts. Last time I looked that was a very democratic state. Does that mean that if Romney ran for President, you would support him?

There are still alot of democrats in the mold of Sam Nunn. To them, the support that Liberman has of the war is what they want. They are not idiots, stupid, misguided, ignorant or any other slang term. They have a different view on the war, that is all.

12. My point was that a lot of Republicans are supporting Lieberman's...

...primary bid. That includes Bill O'Reilly, Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity, Tom DeLay, and (in case you missed the recent DU threads) the goddamn College Republicans!

What the hell type of Democrat garners that kind of support? Answer: no Democrat who's getting my vote. And since I live in Connecticut, my vote is the one that matters, not yours.

4. Unfortunately, those of who elect Democrats

WANT DEMOCRATS!!!!

edit: p.s. Hey Dorothy, there's no place like home! Go back! :D

6. This is the SECOND time that he's...

putting himself above his party.

[David Dunham]

7. Ned is toast if the average CT voters stick with Joe, as they likely will.

[MarkDevin]

8. Let me guess: you don't live in CT. Well, I do...

...and I'm damn sick and tired of all you "unmarried marriage counselors" with your know-nothing opinions on my state's politics! :grr:

[Iniquitous Bunny]

9. Polls have shown that's not true.

Of course, why believe CT voters?

[jenmito]

10. What makes you think THAT?

The polls have Lamont ahead by more all the time.

[MarkDevin]

11. He doesn't live in CT and has probably never set foot in my homestate.

So it's obvious that he's an expert on CT politics. :sarcasm:

[jenmito]

13. Makes sense...

Thanks for the explnation since HE failed to give one. :hi:
