Take The Pledge: 的 Will Work To Defeat Joe Lieberman in 2012?
Firedoglake has it...

Take The Pledge: 的 Will Work To Defeat Joe Lieberman in 2012?


Just to recap:

* Democrats in the Senate just voted overwhelmingly -- 42-13 -- to let Joe Lieberman keep his Homeland Security gavel.
* Reid "feels good" about what they did and won't "apologize to anyone for what we did today."
* Lieberman believes he is a "Member in Good Standing" within the caucus.

Take the pledge

Sign-up to help re-defeat Joe Lieberman.

The race starts now ... whoever runs against Joe Lieberman.

Sign-up below to pledge your support in Connecticut's 2012 Senate race against Joe Lieberman. By signing on today, you promise to give money, volunteer, make calls from a distance, and help defeat Joe Lieberman in any way you can.

We were there in 2006, and we'll be there again, together, in 2012.


We will turn these names over to the campaign of the progressive Democratic nominee for Lieberman's US Senate seat in 2012.

(wink-wink, nudge-nudge, Tim Tagaris?)


I signed up today. Who will joing me?

2. I've heard he won't be running
I called one of my Senators this morning to voice my disgust with what happened in the Senate this morning and the aide I talked to said she understands that Liebemann will not be running for office again. He's retiring.

4. If he thought the grassroots were active for Obama,
he hasn't seen anything like what we will do to defeat him if he runs.

In the meantime, he can do a lot of damage over the next four years.

If there is a God, then LIEberman will be diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer.

6. I'm in
Lieberman won by splitting the Dem vote and getting most of the Repub vote. The state republicans dumped their own candidate (fairly moderate republican) and endorsed Lieberman instead.

7. Lieberdouche won because Connecticut does not have a law that most other states do.
Once you lose a primary, you should not be able to run in the general election that year, under any circumstances. But since Connecticut had no law specifically saying so, LIEberdouche was able to create an entirely fictional political party, and run against both the Democratic nominee, Ned Lamont, and the pathetic stooge standing in as a "Republican nominee" who couldn't even get the Repuke votes (and whose name I can't even remember)

The son of a traitorous bitch has not been a Democrat since that primary (arguably before that as he's DLC) and deserves absolutely NO favors from this party.

Yet if this law is not changed in Connecticut, he will probably invent another fictional party to run again in 2012

8. Oh HELL yes.
I cannot wait to donate to his opponent. Hell, I'd donate to a bag of potatoes if it were running against that buttugly Traitor.
