Both Obama and Clinton betrayed Lamont and all of us during the 2006 campaign. The only one of the three remaining Democratic candidates who actually went to Connecticut and put his shoulder to the wheel for Lamont was John Edwards.

If Lamont had gotten Obama’s agreement to filibuster FISA in exchange for his endorsement, as Stoller says, I can see why Ned might have come out for Obama at this point in time. But he didn’t. So under the circumstances, I’m a bit puzzled why he didn’t show respect for Edwards and defer this kind of decision until his future was clear.

Joe Lieberman, who owes his Senate seat to Republicans who wanted someone more conservative than Lowell Weicker, the principled Rockefeller Republican who sealed Nixon’s doom by backing impeachment, has done it again: He’s screwed another politician named Clinton.

The first time was September 3, 1998. The Republican CoupGate push against Bill Clinton was faltering, as most of America liked the job Bill was doing and didn’t want him

Scarce, a veteran of the Lamont race who helps us out with our videos, is a big fan of the band…Scarce.  So Scarce is really excited that Scarce is reuniting for their first show in 11 years tomorrow night in Cambridge, and made a special request to see them appear on Late Late Night.So to say thanks to Scarce for all he does for us, we bring you…Scarce.And no, I don’t

Sometimes you can be too far ahead of the curve and you have to wait for time and circumstance to catch up with you.

Unfortunately for America, Connecticut voters aren’t casting their votes today in the Lieberman/Lamont race because if they were, Ned Lamont would win and the US Senate would be rid of the pathological, warmongering narcissist Joe Lieberman (CFL-AIPAC).

The poll, commissioned by Daily Kos, found that Ned would handily beat

There’s no question that videoblogging has profoundly impacted our political landscape. Take 2006 for example: You have a macaca moment, a candy shop encounter, a stairway chase, and even a re-enactment (see above). Those are just the videos that occurred to me off the top of my head.

  Unlike many of her rivals for the Democratic nomination for president, Hillary refuses to say her clear support for the Iraq invasion was a mistake:   “It is a gnawing, painful sore,” she said of Iraq. “People are beside themselves with frustration, and I understand that completely. We are trying in the Senate to [...]

  [We are thrilled to welcome Ned Lamont to FDL for a discussion with us today.  As with all Blue America chats, please keep the discussion polite and on topic.  Any off-topic discussions should be moved to the prior thread.  Thank you -- and please join us in welcoming Ned!  -- CHS] The first time [...]

I'm not sure when I first heard/read about Ned Lamont, but I'm certain it was on one of Jane’s posts, months and months before anyone else was paying attention to Lieberman or the possibility that he might be challenged in the Democratic primary. I’m a little slow, so it took me a while to figure [...]

Boy, do we have a great weekend planned for you guys. This week, Howie had an opportunity to interview our favorite Connecticut hero, Ned Lamont, for Saturday's Blue America.  I cannot wait for you all to read the wonderful write-up that Howie has done of their conversation.  I just know you will all love the [...]

Remember the feeding frenzy on primary day in Connecticut when all the media could talk about was the hack of Lieberman's website by Lamont's blogger supporters? As the above clip Scarce put up from the new BBC/Sundance Documentary Blog Wars demonstrates, thinking people were calling "bullshit" at the time.  I guess "thinking people"  would not, [...]
