Joe LIEberman is now the official candidate of the Republican Party |
http://thepoliticker.observer.com/2006/08/nrsc-takes-lieberman.html
NRSC Takes Lieberman
By Jason Horowitz
It's no coincidence that a purposeful silence has replaced the
well-publicized calls from Republicans last month for no-hope GOP
Senate candidate Alan Schlesinger to make way for someone more
credible.
The state and national party, it seems, have concluded that they can't
succeed in Connecticut this year under any circumstance, and would
rather see Joe Lieberman win -- which polls show he's likely to do,
absent a credible Republican candidate -- than risk handing the
election to Democrat Ned Lamont.
This morning, a source at the National Republican Senatorial Committee
confirmed in a phone interview that the party will not help
Schlesinger or any other potential Republican candidate in
Connecticut, and it now favors a Lieberman victory in November.
"We did a poll and there is no way any Republican we put out there can
win, so we are just going to leave that one alone," said the NRSC
source.
Instead, the NRSC is pulling for Lieberman over Ned Lamont, who rode
an anti-war message to a victory in the Aug 8 primary.
"Most Republicans would agree that he'd clearly be a better choice
than Lamont," said the source.

So it's official. Joe LIEberman is the Connecticut Republican Party
candidate for senator.

When will they start whining about the rules that say it's too late to
replace the GOP crook with the former Democrat?
Seems to me the GOP is stuck between the Scylla and Charibdes, with an
undesirable on their own ticket, and the problem of building political
confidence for Independents.

That pretty much describes Republicans. They will do anything to win
including compromising what few principles they have.

Lying sanctimonious piece of *****.
Why do dim states do everything in their power to prevent absentee ballots
of overseas GI's from being counted?

Well "dim states" -- by which I assume you mean those run by Republicans --
may merely be incompetent. We know Republicans are incapable of
administering government services (e.g., FEMA and Katrina).

Of course not, Republicans are making every effort to prove that
government doesn't work.

Nice self-description. Work on it long, or did it come naturally?

Cite from credible source?
Republican ACTUAL successes at vote suppression DWARF anything the
Democrats MAY have done and render miniscule beyond recognition the
handful of voter fraud instances that poll-tax-stand-in voter id's are
supposed to prevent. Ditto black box electronic voting machines
manufactured and maintained exclusively by right wing corporations.

You will of course reject the sources, the arguments, and the
information without ever arguing the facts, because, having absolutely
no principles, you have no interest in debate, introspection, or a
healthy democracy involving a well-informed public. Just don't expect
me to play along. Debate only happens when both parties are willing to
listen and are not now, never have been, and probably never will be
willing to listen to anybody who doesn't already agree with you.

With his comments, U.S. Rep. Charlie Norwood made it clear he wasn't
interested in gathering information.
"What I wanted was witnesses who agree with me, not disagree with me,"
the congressman said.

These Republicans had principles? No, I think you are thinking of
previous generations of Republicans. Authoritarians like Jim E have
never had principles.
