I think I'm being very sensible on this issue. Although Republican, I am not voting for Schlessinger because he has no chance of winning in the first place. I am backing Lieberman because he has a lot of experience. Connecticut and Massachusetts have a dynasty thing going with our senators. As much as I dislike Ted Kennedy and John Kerry, they bring more influence to the Senate than senators of half a dozen states combined. That's what Dodd and Lieberman do for Connecticut. I don't want to give up our upper-hand in Senate business. Sure, Lamont may promise to "urge" things to happen, but that's all he CAN do. Urge. He can't pull ANY influence whatsoever. Let Lieberman run until he retires, which isn't that far away. Plus, Lamont might as well be a Republican in fiscal matters, if his record as Greenwich first selectman serves as any indication. Plus he's one of those millionaires that benefits highly from your so-called "evil" tax cuts. You only see his stance on Bush, which is quite petty and jejune. He isn't running for the Senate; he's running against Bush. So why should he be in the Senate? He's better suited for Howard Dean's assistant if he's going to run on that platform.

In short, unless you're Hilary Clinton (which is a discussion for another day, lol), you won't hold ANY sway in Congress until you've been in there for at least two terms. And that's my rationale for this election.

well, I still don't agree with Lieberman regaurdless of his love of Bush. As stated before, I never agreed with his whole vendetta against video games (of all things) and also his view on censorship. Don't try to pigeonhole me as someone who doesn't vote republican. I don't vote party lines, in fact that's why Tim Stewart is in office. (Yes I voted for a republican).

And I'm still rooting for Lamont.

I'm not "pigeon-holeing" you, since we're clearly talking about two Democratic candidates. Plus Lieberman has been the Democrats' favourite in this state for how many years? All of a sudden it's Lamont? It's all due to this petty anti-Bush sentiment. Yes I voted for Bush, but I recognise he has made some dumb decisions lately and he needs to correct them. BUT. I think admonishing, no, rather, partisan chastising and lambasting--which is what it's come to--the president is completely uncalled-for in general and, more specifically to this issue, has absolutely NOTHING to do with Connecticut's local welfare and seat in the Senate. We know Lieberman helped save the sub-base and worked against environmental issues on the shore. What is Lamont going to do in Washington? Oh yeah, try to push an impeachment vote. Wow. That helps a Connecticut tax-payer like me a lot.

I am sorry to Beata for leaving so many controversial comments (anyone remember the abortion entry? hahaha). So my final word on the subject is, if Lamont is in office Connecticut will lose its national influence and recognition.

Sorry, one more thing I just remembered. Lamont is running a platform against Bush and all his supporters are anti-Bush. Anti-Bush voters think that Al Gore actually won the presidency in 2000. So who is actually supposed to be vice president? JOSEPH LIEBERMAN. How quickly we forget!
