Joe Lieberman is MY SENATOR.

1. I'm sorry to hear that.

He needs to be replaced. It may be a two-step process, with a Republican replacement as the first step. I can't see any Democratic candidate that can win in 2010, so the best that will probably happen is for the Republican to win. At least, then, we won't have Lieberman and work can begin to elect a liberal Democrat six years later.

You are in a tough state right now. But Lieberman is a liability to the Democratic caucus, and is of no use to us any longer.

3. Would Lamont be willing to run again? He's been on several

cable shows recently so he's still trying to remain visible.

12. I believe Lamont's considering running for Governor

18. Al Franken is my senator.

Amy Klobuchar is the other one.

One's great. The other's pretty good.

[madokie]

20. I like Amy too, Franken is going to be great

he's already showing a spine and good ole common sense

[MineralMan]

21. Amy gets a little moderate at times, but boy is she a likeable

person. I think she can be Senator as long as she likes. I don't know anyone who doesn't like her personally. I met her at an Al Franken event and we talked for about five minutes. She never stops looking you in the eye and she listens to what you have to say. You know that because she addresses your concerns frankly and directly.

Al's much the same in person. He listens carefully and thoughtfully. That's rare in politicians. Both are fine Senators.

25. you bet

I seen her on one of the msnbc shows and I was impressed with her possession of the facts. I like working with facts and absolutes

2. Notice health insurance company stocks in the last couple of months?

Since October, they're UP, not down.

They're laughing all the way to the banks they co-own with the bankers, who also got bailouts.

:banghead: The joke's on us. ha ha

[bridgit]

4. Damn, that does suck

[lonestarnot]

5. Lumpy McInsane is MY SENATOR

:puke:

[sellitman]

15. I would trade you if I could

Pretty sad statement huh?

[texanwitch]

6. Look who we have from Texas.

All the states have skin this game.

Just wait and see who votes for this bill.

[burning rain]

7. As much as I hate him, I have to admit he has a certain toughness.

He certainly humiliated Reid and the White House and took a lot of flak, all of it well-deserved--and he could easily have avoided all of it.

[upi402]

11. I wish "Democrats" would fight Goliath like him

But I still hate him with a white hot passion and wish bad things for him with every molecule of my being.

8. And Interestingly... Benedict Arnold Was From Connecticut Too !!!

<snip>

Benedict was born the second of six children to Benedict Arnold III (1683–1761) and Hannah Waterman King in Norwich, Connecticut, on January 14, 1741.

10. I truly feel for you, I am a veteran constituent of Jesse Helms, Liddy Dole, and

now Richard Burr. It hurts.

13. Russ Feingold is my Senator

[sellitman]

16. I loves me some Feingold!

Outside of Bernie he might be the best one in Washington.

[handmade34]

14. I call Bernie Sanders and Pat Leahy my Senators

and they do speak for me

[sellitman]

17. Looks like the picture got bumped

Oh well....

[madokie]

19. Hey, jim inhofe is mine

[jillan]

22. Jon Kyl is mine. And McCain,

Life sux.

[treestar]

23. Condolences

Your state is otherwise lovely.

[Fire1]

24. That's too bad. n/t

[CTyankee]

26. Mine too. I don't know anyone who likes him here...

He's actually IN THE STATE as we speak. He got leave to come for the end of Hannukah and the Sabbath. So at least he's not doing any preening before the cameras...

If I were him, I sure wouldn't try strutting around the state making noises. There are a lot of angry people in CT right about now...not that he cares.
