I’m glad you made it to CT without incident. This week was not the best week to be driving across PA.

Give Lieberman’s nose a tweak for me, please. :)

From a link on the Ed Schultz chat board to Crooks and Liars, then to here, Jane you seem to be everywhere these days, and that’s a good, good thing.

To Sir With Love my ass!

At least it’s better than Holy Joe’s.

There are a lot of voters that will come to the polls to vote for genuinely attractive candidates like Ned. If we can pull this one off, we can do it somewhere else, too. Like in my own state.

Is there a Democrat that can run against Maria Cantwell in my home state of Washington? She is one of the biggest boosters of the Iraq war, and so much of the time votes with the Republicans on key issues.

I know she has to play a delicate balancing act between the liberal Seattle corridor and the extremely right wing rest of the state. But she still refuses to acknowledge that the vote for the war was a mistake, and she seems incapable of understanding that continuing this illegal and bloody occupation has absolutely no chances of success.

She sometimes votes with the Democrats on vital issues, but in most respects she carries a lot of water for the Repugs. Much like Lieberman.

I am going to vote for her opposition (Mark Wilson) in the primary, but even though he has solid liberal platform, and is a geniuinely nice guy, he just doesn’t have enough name recognition, campaign funds, and – as Hollywood would put it – he just doesn’t have “it”.

Ned does have “it”, in great abundance. There are certain people that have this gift, and it is exhilerating when someone like Ned is willing to use his gift in such a positive way.

So I’m rootin’ for Ned in Seattle. I hope the voters make this happen in Connecticut, because this is another step in a revolution that lets ordinary work together in a powerful way to start positive changes in the way our government works for us, and for the benefit of the entire planet.

BTW, the phrase “I’m going to be your next Senator” works just fine. Go Ned!

Everyone who lives in New Haven (welcome to my home, Jane!) knows that the best pizza here is actually MODERN on State St.

Sally’s is “meh” and Pepe’s is really good, but those two are for the tourists. Modern is where the locals go for a pie, and it’s better’n both of the others, anyway.
