Senator Joe Liebermam who just lost the Connecticut Democratic Party primary has registered to run for a fourth term as an 'independant Democrat'. Senator Lieberman was, it seems, too moderate and too non partizan for the new far left Democratic Party. It seems that, nowdays, if you want to run for office as a Democrat you must toe the far left line and you must agree to denounce and fight everything the Republicans put forth. It's Ok to lie, it's OK to cheat but don't you dare agree with anything a Republican says or does.
Michael Moore wrote: Let the resounding defeat of Senator Joe Lieberman send a cold shiver down the spine of every Democrat who supported the invasion of Iraq and who continues to support, in any way, this senseless, immoral, unwinnable war. Make no mistake about it: We, the majority of Americans, want this war ended -- and we will actively work to defeat each and every one of you who does not support an immediate end to this war.
Arianna Huffington wrote: What Lieberman is doing is an act of betrayal and should be treated as such. Democratic donors, as Rick Jacobs suggests, need to let it be known that no Democrat running for office will see a penny from them unless they support Lamont. and Bottom line: all Democrats should immediately begin treating Lieberman as what he is -- a party-ditching, party-pooping, control-of-Congress risking spoiler, ie a danger to the Party.
Senators Harry Reid of Nevada and Chuck Schumer of New York said: The perception was that (Lieberman) was too close to George Bush and this was, in many respects, a referendum on the president more than anything else.
According to Stephanie Reitz of the Associated Press: Top Democratic leaders threw their support to Lamont, the anti-war challenger who said Lieberman was too supportive of the war and President Bush.
It seems to me that Democratic politicians are no longer allowed to think for themselves and they are no longer allowed to care about the American people. They must either be robots and follow the far left party line or they will be cast out.
