Let me just say that I am very disappointed with the voters of Connecticut's Democratic primary. They had a perfectly good senator, one of the best in the country, who only happened to disagree with them on one main issue. The liberals on this board consider themselves to be much more "tolerant" people than the conservatives, but they've just chucked someone based on the fact that he happens to not agree with them 100% on every issue. I don't know where people like jfern get off saying that Lieberman was a rubber-stamp for Bush's policies, when he has criticized several of them (Lieberman mentioned this himself). It's sad, really.
Good lord, man, you think it unreasonable of voters to want
their representative to represent their views?!
There is no reason to 'tolerate' ones representative misrepresenting one, Senator Virgin.
