Detective Story: Has Rove Been Guiding the Lieberman Campaign
All Along?

"Everybody's talking about the report that Karl Rove's offered to help the Lieberman campaign. An offer like this, leaked by one of Joe's top aides, it raises the question: Has Rove been guiding the Lieberman campaign from the very beginning? That alleged "website hacking" could well be Rove's handiwork - and more clues abound.

(UPDATE: Joe's people, and W's, have issued their predictable, obligatory, and not-too-convincing denials. My hypothesis still stands.) Before you say the idea's too farfetched, consider this:

Lieberman's campaign has been designed from the start to inflict maximum damage on the Democratic Party."

3. I would say not directly, but by a few degrees of
separation. I hope the voters of Connecticut will see through the ruse and vote for the salvation of our country, a democracy that is going through death throes now at the hands of the neo-cons.

In other words, if you want to vote for the Republican do so, and if you want to vote for the Democrat do so, but don't let the independent be a spoiler. No votes for him.

I was even thinking that they are planting all the negative comments about Jews throughout the blogs in an attempt to discredit them and keep the poor Joe story running. It might be interesting if some of bloggers checked the IP addresses of some of those posts and try to determine where they originated, no?
