Why Lamont lost the election-in true sense it is not loss but a Gain to Dems!

Lamont's Loss to Lieberman Was A Progressive Gain

By David Sirota, In These Times. Posted November 13, 2006. Voters in Connecticut in the end went for Joe Lieberman. But Ned Lamont's insurgent anti-war campaign was a step forward for progressive forces building for the future.

It was raining hard when I returned my rental car at Hartford's Bradley International Airport on Wednesday -- the weather was not helping to raise my spirits from the night before. I had been working as a strategist and rapid response staffer for Ned Lamont's Senate campaign against pro-war incumbent Joe Lieberman, and we had just lost the general election by 10 points. Needless to say, I wasn't happy. But my mood lifted when the middle-aged woman at the Avis counter said, "I voted for him." Here is the Link: http://www.alternet.org/story/44212/

Joe Joe-Bye Bye

I was at the Ned Lamont bus rally to complete the campain activities before the elction day. I enjoyed being part of the rally, what a lively rally behind Ned, it was fantastic. Ned is like a dynamite to point out the issues and the bad direction our country is going, he blasted the great Joe Joe for all his wrong doing in the last 18 years.

It is a shame, the state of Connecticut selected him for the three terms, but this time, they relaized the mistake and are going to stand for change in voting to Ned.

We will give huge send off party to Joe .....Bye Bye Joe.
