I don't know if Howard Dean is correct about "Republicans and Independents" now "choosing" to join the Dem party -- or if those new voters registered for the CT Dem Primary were actually all Dems.

But, it will certainly be interesting to see if the Dem Party can actually maintain a "unified" front one just one issue -- Iraq -- for November elections in 2006 and 2008. I am betting they can not, but, it will be interesting to see them attempt it.

I know some swing voters in FL are feeling war weary, however they are not yet running to change their voter registration to Dem. It is often too difficult to figure out what, if anything, Dems stand for in FL.

Also, an interesting editorial from The National Review, supporting Joe LIeberman's independent run -- CLICK HERE to read "A Friend in Need."

Dean is a tool. Lots of states allow registered Republicans to vote in Democrat primaries. Connecticut is one of them. I suspect many of them voted for Lieberman. I heard yesterday that the Netroots effort only chalked up a small number of independents to vote for them. They didn't even focus on prospective new voters.

As Ann Coulter wrote today, Lamont is going to unite the "cut" and the "run" wings of the Democrat Party.

In Northwest Florida it means screwing your contituents at every turn with bad backroom deals. The only thing that keeps them going is the outright uselessness of the Northwest FL Republican party.
