A Sore Loserman again ...
This artwork was posted on Daily Kos tonight and I thought it would be nice to steal. :-)
Sen. Joseph Lieberman is going down to defeat tonight and is refusing to quit. Instead, he will run as an independent.
Normally, I wouldn't have a problem with an independent run by Lieberman or anyone else. I like indies, have worked for them and supported them. I'm one myself.
I watched his speech on C-Span and the guy is a Sore Loserman again, like he was in 2000, after the debacle in Florida. Like he was in 2004, when he claimed a third place finish in the New Hampshire primary even though he came in fifth.
Sore Loserman is the epitome of what is wrong with everything going on in our political process. Thankfully, there was a female heckler in the audience at least trying to taunt him on the war stuff. The stones on this man are too much. Does he have no shame?
And what about Lamont’s campaign? Didn’t they learn anything about momentum? He should have pulled a Clinton - and gotten right on TV and claimed victory and let Sore Loserman stew. Lamont needed to be on at 11:01 … not Sore Loserman. It is important to get the live shot right at 11 p.m. which is exactly what Sore Loserman got from Connecticut television.
Although, Lamont's speech was good and he had the Rev. Jesse Jackson, the Rev. Al Sharpton, and Rep. Maxine Waters there, which should shore up some of the urban vote for the final election.
Now is the time to see what the establishment Democrats do. It's pony up time. Now is the time for all the elected Democrats of national stature to fly to Hartford and stand all together beside Ned Lamont. Let's see if they have the stones to do what is right ... or will they drive us all back to Ralph Nader again?
Rep. Cynthia McKinney, one of the only pols in Washington to challenge the "official" 9/11 story, also lost her primary, 58-41. In her case, it is sad to see her lose.
What an exciting night.
