1. As far as I know, he has none...
Weicker has strongly hinted at a run as an independent, but I haven't heard anything on that for a while.

Someone closer to the race could probably fill you in better.

2. Support Ned Lamont!!!
Edited on Mon Jan-30-06 07:49 PM by Nutmegger
He hasn't made it official but he has been making stops around the state trying to get a feel for it.

If Lamont doesn't get the nomination, Weicker still plans to challenge LIEberman as an anti-war candidate. So either way it looks like we'll have some choice.

8. He supports univeral health care
That alone should hook people into asking, "Who is this man?"

6. This doesn't do me any good.
If Lieberman is up in 06, this guy doesn't even have a list of committed volunteers.

There has to be something faster. Is there any scandal in Lieberman's past that the public should know about? And I don't mean something private. I mean taking money from the wrong people kind of thing?

4. I hope Dean has someone in mind.
The Congress is mad at; him because he was smart enough to spend a lot the coffers on state elections. We need to get Gov. and elect rep elected in the states to guard these elections. They would; not need as much money if they would vote the way their constituents wanted them to.

9. I wish I could tell you, being I'm a CT resident.. I've heard rumors that
Lowell Wicker may try and run. I've always voted for Lieberman in the past, but this year will be different.

11. I've read that Weicker may still run
Edited on Mon Jan-30-06 08:25 PM by Nutmegger
if Lamont doesn't win the primary. On the flip-side, I heard that Lamont might run as and Indie. So things are pretty murky now.
