How can the voters (regardless of party) be stupid for choosing a guy who brings government money/projects to a small state? I was surprised that Dodd will be appearing in ads for Ned. It seems obvious, yes, but I was still surprised.
If the Dems take the Senate, booting Lieberman is even stupider. He'd then be the Chair or a Senate Committee. Ned doesn't change the balance of power in the Senate, so he has no influence among even Democrat leadership there. Electing Lamont makes no sense.
Well to say that Lieberman has brought money/projects home to CT is rediculous. Although he is pro-pork he does poorly bringing that pork home. We're 49 out of 50 for a return on our taxes.
And Ned does change the balance of power. It means one less reliable Republican vote on just about everything that matters. It means one more vote to end the illegal and immoral war in Iraq.
