xpost - Connie Saltonstall will be live blogging on Crooks and Liars on Wednesday

From "Down with Tyranny"...

"Unions have defended and supported Stupak. If he wants to demonize them in the right-wing media, he must really be feeling the heat. Just by mentioning that Connie was in the race, Blue America has raised nearly $4,500 for her in a few days. Now that Digby has traveled to meet her in person and speak with her about a broad range of issues, kick the tires and determine that she's of good character, our PAC will be formally endorsing her on Wednesday morning. (She'll be live blogging with us at Crooks and Liars at 3pm (EST/12pm PT). Stupak realizes he's now turned himself into another Joe Lieberman or Blanche Lincoln. He's pissed off the base so badly that it will be difficult for him to ever win an election again."

My edit: Since declaring her candidacy a week ago, Connie has actually raised twice as much as Bart Stupak on ActBlue in the past week as he has, well, ever. Many good folks have waited to donate to Connie's campaign until they find out more about her, which I completely respect. On Wednesday, they will have the opportunity to learn more about her positions and see why Blue America is formally endorsing her this week.

3. Could you please xpost this in the Michigan forum?

Stupak's gonna be getting big bucks from the religion crowd.

And Connie's gonna be needing every dollar.
