Let’s leave Nader in the political wilderness, shall we? The last thing Ned needs is for his campaign to be compared to Nader’s run in 2000. I hate Nader more than I hate Bush, Cheney, and Lieberman, and let me tell you, that is a lot of hate.

I am a little worried here.

This extended period where all these “unafilliated” voters can overwhelm the process and switch parties just in time for August 8th seems very, very fishy to me.

This allows non-D-Party, right-leaning or right-wing spoilers to just come swooping in and ensure that Joe Lieberman defeats Lamont - right?

I mean .. these people are not the “so do we” crowd that want Lamont to win.

It looks to me like a loop-hole to get GOP/Lieberman-sympathizers to bust-up Ned Lamont’s bid to place 1st among Democrats in a Democratic Primary.

This is not good news!

I saw where this Joe Weber dude who bought the Air America station in Atlanta so he could throw everyone but Al Franken off gave contributions in ‘04 to the Republican Party and Joe Lieberman.

Jim at 66 and Oscarsmom at 76: Thanks. Both answers sound reasonable. And yes, let’s see Hadassah’s return!

Ralph Nader… great. I look forward to his continuing contributions to our political discourse. Glad he’s got a great memory for lots of icky stuff. My memory’s not so good… but then, there’s really only one thing you need to remember about Nader.

I hope Schesinger stays in the race. If he drops out it will be bad for Ned, because ALL republicans will then vote for an independent Lieberman.

There is apparently another republican that will be running: Diana S. Urban. She will run as a “petioning candidate” and she is apparently against the war in Iraq.

In any case, what I think is that Lamont will win the democratic primary with such a wide marging, that Lieberman will be forced to exit the race. Maybe is wishful thinking, but thats what I predict will happen.

Where’s Christy? Isn’t her nap over yet?
