Lieberman Holds Fundraiser For Republican Collins Tonight

[Elidor]

Joe Lieberman, whom Bloomberg campaigned for last year -- holds a fundraiser in DC tonight for moderate GOP Sen. Susan Collins (R), who likely will face a tough re-election fight next year. To poke their nemesis Lieberman in the eye, liberal MoveOn yesterday issued a press release stating that its members had raised $350,000 for likely Collins opponent Tom Allen (D), freshman Rep. Patrick Murphy, and MoveOn's Iraq campaign.

As if I needed another reason to loathe this POS.

1. Exactly how many sharks has that deluded fuck jumped, now?

[The Count]

2. Unfortunately, until we get another senate seat, he can be a player - at least

many who matters see him this way.(Zell played this game once)
Mind you, for him to win that race - he had behind him BOTH party machines vs the people - he is the embodiment of what's wrong with our political system.

4. "...for him to win that race - he had behind him BOTH party machines vs the people...

- he is the embodiment of what's wrong with our political system."

A - M - E - N ! ! !

7. And so is the

bushit coup in 2000 and 2004.

[The Count]

10. Not to the same extent. There it was GOP stealing it from the Dems.

But on Lieberman - open collusion. PNAC has people on both sides of the isle. Including in the 2008 race.

3. Let's get some more seats so we can toss Loserman out of...

his committee assignments!

[Larkspur]

5. We should fax this story to Harry Reid and Chuck Schumer

and flood their offices with it!!!!!

[catgirl]

6. "whom Bloomberg campaigned for"

Is this a favor being returned? And will Bloomberg run just to steal dem votes?

[The Count]

11. I don't think he'll run. But he wants to be a player with his money - like he

obviously was for Joementum.
In his first primaries for Mayor (70 million cost), he had an opponent whom he effectively starved of cash by telling contributors: do you really want to go against me?"His second purchase of the mayoralty cost him over 100 million. Against the weakest candidate the MSM picked for him for the Dems. less people voted than the last time, yet the media called it a landslide.(while criticizing Corzine for lots of spending!)
The guy's grip on the MSM is more solid than W's (he owns it outright).
Many New Yorkers are oblivious to his evil - even on DU I see him praised occasionally.
If in doubt about his loyalties, remember: he invited the RNC convention in NYC, endorsed the police spying on the protesters, opposed our right to congregate in central Park.

8. Will that POS campaign for Orrin Hatch next?

Or Ted Stevens. Let's see how many of the RW whackjob senators Holy Joe will endorse and still stay "independent".

[Seedersandleechers]

9. I fear

some liberal psychotic wacko is going to do something really awful to that man....

[martymar64]

15. What a wonderful dream, albeit unlikely

Unfortunately, nothing will probably happen to him. The fuckheads always live to a ripe old age.

[MaineDem]

12. She is not a moderate!

Arianna should know better than to call her one.

Collins once said she would never vote against Bush's wishes. And she usually doesn't - when it counts. Sure, she votes against her party when the votes are on her side but rarely when it counts.

If you want to help fight this fundraiser you can donate to Tom's campaign: https://services.myngp.com/ngponlineservices/contribution.aspx?X=tnlqW%2bcHzJx62qhTDXDY4w%3d%3d&m=tomallen

Thank you so much!

13. I just hope this crazy man does not

decide to change and join the repub. What I want to happen is that in the election of 08 the Dems gain 5 to 7 seats in the Senate and then come January of 09 whomever is the majority leader tells CrazyJoe he is being striped of his chairmanship and he can now go and vote with the losers...Maybe a strong Dem will appear and run against Collins and the Dems will support this candidate....
I do thank you
Ben David

[MaineDem]

14. We have a strong Dem running aginst her

And he voted against the Iraq War resolution while in Congress.

Tom Allen can beat her!

[Nutmegger]

16. How embarrassing.

Everytime this vile piece of waste is mentioned in the M$M as the "Senator from Connecticut", I hang my head in shame and embarrassment.

[snowbear]

17. He's holding the fundraiser for her in return for the one that she held for him...

According to articles on the net.

Evidently the two are pretty chummy. =BARF=
