The stakes are high. The do-nothing, spineless branch of the Democratic Party, which believes that the best way for a Democrat to win an election is to act like a Republican, is working as hard as it possibly can to destroy Ned Lamont’s campaign to restore integrity and progressive values to the Connecticut Democratic Party. These establishment Democrats really think that Connecticut is eager to support Democrats who stand with George W. Bush.
You have a chance to help prove them wrong. You have the opportunity to help restore the Democratic Party, not just in Connecticut, but all around America, to its proper position as an agent of progressive reform and defense of the grand tradition of the American values enshrined in the Bill of Rights.
You can volunteer to help defeat Joseph Lieberman. Volunteer with MoveOn to call progressive Connecticut Democrats and remind them to vote on Tuesday. Or, if you’re available, volunteer with Democracy for America to go to Connecticut to help their get-out-the-vote efforts.
This is not just about the war. Joseph Lieberman votes with the right wing Republicans more than he votes with the Democratic Party. Now Joseph Lieberman is preparing to leave the Democratic Party, start his own political party, and attack the Democratic candidate, all to preserve his own personal power. Now that Senator Lieberman sees that Ned Lamont is more popular than he is, he’s canceled his get-out-the-vote efforts, hoping that Connecticut Democrats don’t vote. That’s the position of a political scoundrel.
Ned Lamont won’t abandon progressive Democrats like Joseph Lieberman is doing. Win or lose, Ned Lamont wants Connecticut Democrats to vote on Tuesday. Ned Lamont is the voice of the responsible Democratic Party. Give him a hand.
I wonder if someone might just find this article by searching for “Help Out Lieberman”, but accidentally hittinng the S key to make Out into Oust.
