CT: Hillary wins among Lieberman lovers

[maximusveritas]

Just an interesting stat I found in the CT exit poll:
http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/primaries/results/epolls/index.html#CTDEM

Among the 32% who have a favorable opinion of Lieberman, Clinton leads 50-47.
But among the 66% who have an unfavorable opinion, Obama leads 53-45.

1. Imagine that.

Never would have guessed.

:sarcasm:

[ursi]

Dodge Ball: Kate Veatch: I'm fine. I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

[Cha]

2. And Ned Lamont..my hero from Connecticut

endorsed Obama!

[maximusveritas]

5. Yep, that must have helped him

I hope Obama does better than he did though. It seems like progressives always lose these battles.

[Straight Shooter]

6. Amazing, isn't it, since Barack campaigned for Lieberman.

His mentor.

[tammywammy]

7. As did the Clintons

[Straight Shooter]

9. But Barack is supposed to be the anti-establishment guy.

Not so much now, I suppose.

[cali]

13. um, no. he's part of the liberal establishment. You know,

Ted Kennedy, Pat Leahy. She's part of the DLC lovin' establishment.

[Straight Shooter]

16. I didn't qualify it. And neither did Barack while promoting his image.

However, the more he's seen and identified with an ensconced establishment figure like Kennedy, and especially Kerry who really personifies establishment, the more Barack will be seen as a part of the establishment or at least wanting to be part of the establishment.

To some, it may look like a sellout on his part. Others won't care. Too soon to tell.

23. The DLC establishment like Ben Nelson, Kerry, and Tim Johnson

Who did they endorse? The DLC hated Dean but have not had a single bad thing to say about Obama. They know they win either way. Obama doesn't threaten them like Dean did. Al From has stated he is "proud" of both HillBama.

[Straight Shooter]

26. Is Sebelius still DLC? She endorsed Barack, right?

I believe Daschle has also endorsed him, or certainly set up support for Barack. That's big-time DLC.

Facts are ornery things.

[jackson_dem]

27. Oh yeah. Seblius is one of the DLC's big "rising stars"

Daschle is doing a lot behind the scenes for Obama on K Street and Capitol Hill. He is a veep prospect for Obama.

[Cha]

15. You really need to

study up on what's goin' on.

[Straight Shooter]

20. Well, hey there, fellow Dean supporter.

Condescending much?

[tammywammy]

19. That's not what you said

You're trying to smear Obama b/c he supported Lieberman in the primary. The Clintons also supported Lieberman in the primary. There's no need to be disingenuous about it.

[Straight Shooter]

22. Is a fact a smear?

Fine. Get ready for the MSM to smear Barack all over the place. Obama supported Lieberman, told the people of Connecticut that he knew they would "have the good sense to vote for him." What's the smear there?

And for your info, I supported Dodd to begin with, who backed Lamont. Then I chose my candidate based on what I wanted in a president.

[cali]

12. hate to break this to you, pickles

but hilly did too. Furthermore Senate mentors are assigned, crumpet. And lastly Hilly is the DLC Queen. She and Lieberman are peas in a pod.

[Straight Shooter]

18. What's with the name-calling tonight, cali?

You're always angry. You're supposed to be filled with hope, remember? You're representing the change that Barack wants you to be in this world.

[southern_dem]

3. interesting

:rofl:

[tammywammy]

4. LOL

:rofl:

[cali]

8. LOL!

that's amusing.

[Whisp]

10. I saw Liebermans assface near McCain

in some droning speech McNugget was doing...

wtf is he, that leiberman turd?
erm, whose side again? I can't keep up.
I know he on the shitstain side, that's all I know about his affilations lately.

[Honeycombe8]

11. "There's a certain symmetry to that." (from The Big Chill) nt

[CreekDog]

14. People have sex with Lieberman?

ewwww.

[TheDonkey]

17. Maybe hillary will tap Lieberman as VP. I could see it happen!

you know you could too. ICK

[Eurobabe]

21. Who woulda thunk it?

Will he be her running mate? Loserman?

[Indenturedebtor]

24. Well that's shocking

Because like so many people who have proudly been posting around here the last few days I vote my genitals and my minority.

Which as a Jewish Man means that I was all in for Lieberman. However since all Obama supporters are part of a fake Liberal RW conspiracy I feel comfortable in voting for him and supporting him for the time being, ultimately hoping that his nomination will lead to a Republican victory and ultimate dominance of Israel over Murika :sarcasm:

No surprises here :rolleyes:

[usregimechange]

25. Clinton/Lieberman?
