Thursday Morning Round-Up
- The fallout begins from Sen. Lieberman's senate speech yesterday. David Lightman at the Courant has an excellent summary of yesterday's events in the Capitol, and got this response from Tom Swan on how Sen. Lamont would have voted and why:
Swan said that Lamont backed the Reed-Levin plan, which is expected to win the votes of at least 40 of the Senate's 44 Democrats, even though it was "watered down."
Lamont was "sympathetic" to the Kerry proposal, Swan said, but "he wouldn't necessarily vote for it, because he wants to be a uniter among Democrats." - CTBob was at the David Sirota event with Ned in New Haven last night, as was Tim from the official blog. Yet another overflowing crowd at a Lamont event.
- CTBlogger has put up the definitive list of where local Democrats stand on the question: "Will you support the Democratic nominee for Senate?" So far, a couple of fence-sitters, and only one "True Liebercrat" (or "Joe-dependent") in Droney.
- Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the personal fundraising page for LamontBlog.

I like "Joe-dependent" to describe such clueless party sell-outs. The term suggests they are addicted... most likely to the sense of power they get from being FOI (Friend of the Incumbent), which in political machine-think, means everything.
But not anymore.
Oh, and it'll nice to watch Droney twist in the wind for a bit. I bet the fence-sitters will realize pretty soon which side makes sense to join.
