Ed Schultz has been ineffective...it's a good thing.

[WA98296]

How long will Ed Schultz be on the air today, before he blames the “bloggers” for the loss of Lieberman?
Ed’s on-air stumping for Lieberman, for weeks, has been INEFFECTIVE.

Even by polls at Ed’s own website show that his listeners favor Lamont (93%) over Lieberman (7%).

Ed is a patsy of the DLC...and it's not working. Time to get with the people Ed.

[AX10]

1. Ed's the "first DLC patsy" who is pro-union then.

[JackBeck]

3. Then he should have criticized Lieberman for not using Union labor

to produce campaign literature.

[Larkspur]

4. Lieberman won the endorsement of the CT AFL-CIO and a few days

afterwards he voted for the Oman Free Trade act which the AFL-CIO opposed.

The DLC gang claims to support unions by passing free trade acts that bleed jobs from this country.

[WA98070]

12. Organized Labor is just another corporation..these days

"Gimme that old time religion" where belonging to a Union meant having a certain set of values.

[Rainscents]

2. Give him, 10 seconds!

[LittleClarkie]

5. Should be interesting today to see what he says about the win

Hopefully he will be "Unity Boy" and line up behind Lamont.

[WA98296]

8. I hope he does, but it will depend on what DLC wants his view to be.

I predict half hearted. Remember recently when he called out us "bloggers" saying that if we out Lieberman, then we had better realize that Hillary has the same positions....Ed, you're too slow, we already know that and that is why she has lost favor.

Power to the people.

P.S. Pro Union is a GOOD thing,
Pro NAFTA/CAFTA is a BAD thing for the working people of the world

[dancingme]

6. as effective as Alan Colmes

;-)

[VolcanoJen]

7. Just last week, Ed was saying....

... "Mark my words, folks. Joe Lieberman is the next Senator from the state of Connecticut, and you know it."

:rofl:

[WA98296]

11. The DLC is now in the know on the voting machines? Who's counting in CT?

[Rainscents]

20. Can I laugh with you? LOL

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[LTR]

9. He's only on one station in Connecticut

It's a semi-weak AM in New Haven.

Still, I couldn't imagine many new voters switching to Loserman. He is what he is, always has been and always will.

[BuyingThyme]

10. Yes, a silly DLC contractor.

[rustydog]

13. Why couldn't Ed support a candidate of his choice?

Although Ed did have both candidates on his show and asked both tough questions, I think he leaned more towards Lieberman but isn't that his right as a voter? This is still America, right?

[BuyingThyme]

14. But Ed is a compulsive liar. He kept saying Joe was being

targeted over one issue. I think we should honor compulsive liars like Ed.

[LittleClarkie]

15. That doesn't make him a liar. It just means his opinion differed

from yours.

[BuyingThyme]

16. No, it means the DLC told him to lie, and he lied. I haven't

offered an opinion.

[LittleClarkie]

17. Proof?

Well, you don't seem to think that the Lieberman race came down to one issue. Hence, I was taking that as your opinion. Ed, on the other hand, saw it as a one issue race. Which sounds to me like HIS opinion. Hardly a lie.

I can't take your accusation seriously if it has no proof behind it. Just because Eddie tends toward centrisism, and is pretty obviously a Hillary Dem, doesn't mean they told him to lie. Indeed, I'm still trying to find the lie you think he told. It's his opinion, nothing more. He's farther to the right than many here, while still being pretty good on issues such as Social Security. That doesn't make him a liar. Just a Centrist.

[BuyingThyme]

18. Ed did not have an opinion. He refuses to learn the issues and thus

is incapable of forming opinions. Joe Lieberman lost favor because he ongoingly attacked the Democratic party, because he supported the Schiavo circus, because he wants Americans to die in Iraq, because he is a Judaeo-Christian supremacist, because he lies almost as much as does Ed Schultz, because he kisses the head Nazi, etc.

But the truth did not serve Ed, so he lied.

[LittleClarkie]

19. No. He just didn't have the same opinion as you. That is all.

Everyone is capable of forming opinions. Just not opinions identical to yours. And you DO have an opinion. You've just expressed it. My opinion is that your opinion is wrong, however.

[BuyingThyme]

21. No, it's just that some people can only understand single-issue

politics. Right?

[LittleClarkie]

24. What?

That didn't even make sense according to what we were talking about.

[BuyingThyme]

25. We're not actually talking about Ed Schultz, are we?

[The Revolution]

22. You won't get any proof

I always read these vague accusations that Ed is some kind of DLC puppet...but theres never any proof.

[LittleClarkie]

23. Indeed, such accusations are tossed around with abandon

Ed in a Recovering Republican. Centrist is about as good as we can hope for. And perhaps he will bring some Recovering Republicans with him as he goes. I can live with my disagreements with Ed. I'm just happy to have somewhat liberal radio in the state. Sure beats Hannity and Rush.

[BuyingThyme]

27. How 'bout the fact that the DLC uses him as a puppet.

[The Revolution]

29. Huh?

All you did was state the accusation again...that isn't proof

[BuyingThyme]

30. The only thing you would accept as proof is a recorded conversation.

It doesn't matter to you that Ed is tight with he DLC and puppeted their purge language. But I'm not going to come up with a recording.

[The Revolution]

31. Um...

You don't have anything at all...much less a recording.

It doesn't matter to you that Ed is tight with he DLC and puppeted their purge language.

Once again, all you've done is restate the accusation as if it is fact...but you haven't shown anything to explain why you believe it's true. Are you just going with the old "repeat it enough times and it will become true" idea?

Plus, what purge language are you talking about? All the talk I hear about purging comes from those who want to purge the DLC from the party...

[flpoljunkie]

26. Ed will be on board with Ned Lamont, like the rest of the Democratic party

Lieberman is undermining the party with his selfish attempt to cling to power. I think Ed would find this as distasteful as the rest of us.

[matcom]

28. listen to him every day

and agree with him about as much as i agree with Lou Dobbs.

check my post history.

Racist is as Racist does ;)
