HARTFORD, Conn., Aug. 3 -- Democratic challenger Ned Lamont, riding strong antiwar sentiment, has surged to a significant lead over embattled Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman (D-Conn.) heading into Tuesday's Senate primary, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released here Thursday. The poll showed Lamont ahead of Lieberman by 54 percent to 41 percent, underscoring the challenger's clear advantage. Facing a likely defeat, Lieberman has scrapped plans for a massive and costly get-out-the-vote operation on primary day, according to several Democratic sources. Instead, he will shift some of his resources into more television commercials designed to highlight his accomplishments for the...

The "Gang of 14" senators who brokered the end to judicial filibusters has so far stuck together in unanimously supporting the nomination of federal Judge John G. Roberts Jr. to be the next Supreme Court chief justice. That stamp of approval, Republican leaders say, paves the way for a smoother confirmation of the next Supreme Court nominee. "The process has been handled very well," Majority Whip Mitch McConnell told reporters yesterday. "The outcome will be largely bipartisan. I think that's very good for the Senate, because in many ways the Senate itself was on trial here." Specifically, Republican leaders say,...

John Kerry's nightmarish challenge by his Swift Boat veterans and their allies may not be over. NewsMax recently chatted with Jerry Corsi, the co-author with Swiftee John O'Neill of "Unfit for Command" – the runaway New York Times best seller that torpedoed Kerry's presidential campaign. Attending a conference in the suburbs of Washington recently, Corsi let it be known that he is actively considering a run against Sen. Kerry when his term is up. Corsi is not a Massachusetts native, but says he has already scouted for property to declare his residence there. He appeared excited about the challenge. Federal...

I saw this post on FR earlier, but couldn't locate a way to buy these bumper stickers. They were originally on eBay, but were all sold. I finally found the site to grab them. These are too funny. I picked up a few for my family and friends. Click for the site

Katie Couric supposedly was going to interview Elizabeth Edwards (and John Edwards) about her breast cancer but instead ended up concentrating on that "difficult and disappointing loss" to President Bush. Lightweight John Edwards also said that Bush has "no mandate" and "The election was so close" and he gave up his seat but "will continue to fight to move America forward" implying that Bush will stampede his program to hurt America (I was vomiting violently by this time) . Kouric continued to talk about that loss (I was repulsed by Katie's dramatic emphasis on syllables for effect) while Johnny tried...

Not wanting to make the same mistake the Yankees made last year when the lost in the World Series, the Yankees declare Victory this morning. "Last year we gave up before all the game films were closely scrutinized." said Yankee Manager Joe Torre. "We discovered several errors that could have given us the series, and we prematurely conceded defeat, not this year. Obviously the racist call against A-Rod will be a sticking point along with the fact we scored more runs than those Commie Red Sox." The Yankees have already made travel arrangements to play whomever wins the National League...

THE KERRY vs. BUSH DEBATE by: Chris Bjornberg I finally had time to listen to the tape of the debate. Kerry continually repeated the mantra, "I can do it better." Bush has caught 75% of the Al Quida terrorists and has them in prison. Pakistan is catching terrorist leaders. Even Yemen is supporting us and gave the death penalty to two terrorists who bombed the U.S.S. Cole. How's Kerry going to do better? Oh, maybe he'll claim our troops were cutting off Iraqi's ears and raping women. Kerry has continually voted over the years to cut funding to the CIA,...

The Democrats: In quest of seriousness Bill Murchison January 21, 2004 Brashness wears thin, as Ross Perot twice discovered in the '90s. And Perot had a certain goofy charm about him -- a larger claim than supporters of the Mad Doctor of Vermont would make for their man. Eventually, voters start to visualize a candidate actually swearing, on Inauguration Day, to "faithfully execute the Office of the President of the United States ... " Let us not yet write off Howard Dean and the Deaniacs, with their Internet cash-raising machine. Dean does something to and for a fair number of...

Democratic Presidential hopefuls Wesley Clark and Joe Lieberman each announced this weekend that they would not compete in the January 19th Iowa Caucuses. Instead, each plans to focus on other early contest primary states. "We have made the decision that we don't have the time or the money to compete there," said Clark's spokesperson. Clark believes that Howard Dean and Dick Gephardt are too well organized for Clark to be competitive against them in the state. "After much consultation, we decided to focus our resources on where they will prove most effective," said Lieberman's campaign manager. Lieberman is opening four...

Mr. Lieberman's uncertainty about how much to tangle with his opponents is hardly unusual in the Democratic presidential contest. The early start and fast pace of the campaign has pressured all the candidates to get tougher and move more quickly than ever before, their aides said, defying the conventional practice of delaying criticism of other candidates for as long as possible. This is a result both of the crowded field and the unexpected dominance of a candidate none had taken seriously, former Gov. Howard Dean of Vermont, one target of Mr. Lieberman's undelivered shots. This unsettled environment has dizzied the...

MANCHESTER, NH -- The Joe Lieberman for President Campaign will unveil two "JoeMobiles" in Friday's Fourth-of-July parades in Amherst and Merrimack, New Hampshire. Joe Lieberman and his wife Hadassah, along with son Matt and family will march in both parades. The two JoeMobiles -- a Chrysler PT Cruiser and Dodge Intrepid are "wrapped" in red, white and blue covering with Joe 2004 logos and photos, and will visit countless towns and communities across the Granite State over the next seven months. "New Hampshire is about grassroots campaigning - it's where the rubber hits the road," said Lieberman's NH State Director...

Democratic presidential hopefuls Joe Lieberman and Bob Graham Friday addressed Latino leaders at the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials' annual meeting in Phoenix. Sens. Lieberman and Graham spoke to the Phoenix conference via satellite and both Democrats criticized President Bush's economic policies and tax cuts. Lieberman said he supported a worker permit program for Mexican migrants, as well as earned legal status for law-abiding, tax-paying illegal immigrants. The Connecticut Democrat said current border policies are "immoral and unacceptable" and said he would hammer out an immigration-reform pact with Mexican President Vicente Fox. Former Arizona governor Raul Castro...

WASHINGTON -- There's a veneer of serenity to Joe Lieberman in these final days before he makes his White House bid official. But beneath the calm is a man still framing, still wrestling with, how to explain and market the biggest decision of his life. Though the Connecticut Democrat talks expansively about why he wants to be president, his syntax and his logic are often labored. He is still developing his rationale for running. He is still trying to prepare for critics who will say he's on too many sides of too many issues, that he's too thin-skinned and unwilling...

Today Imus asked Benard to prepare a list of questions for 8/2/02 to GRILL Lieberman on about when he will call Robert Rubin to the senate for questioning on various involement in these corporate scandals. I would like to see what questions we can come up with as a collective, (sorry too socialist) commonsense group that Imus might use to ask this hypocrite.

<p>Senate Democrats investigating the collapse of Enron Corp. said yesterday that they have no plans to question former Clinton Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin, a top official at Citigroup Inc., over its role in hiding Enron's debt from investors.</p>
<p>"I don't," said Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman, chairman of the Governmental Affairs Committee, when asked whether he intended to call Mr. Rubin as a witness.</p>

KEENE, N.H. -- Most people probably spent Sunday evening watching basketball, barbecuing, or taking it easy before another workweek. Joe Lieberman passed the time stopping at the Kahn house on Darling Road to hobnob with people willing to pay $25 each to talk 2004 politics. Nothing unusual about that, though, and the very fact that the political world takes such a visit - and the Connecticut Democrat's breakneck campaign schedule - in stride probably says much about where the 2004 campaign is heading. Lieberman spoke to about 60 local folks Sunday night at this house, tucked off a winding road...
