The petititon created by my staff to encourage the Party Leadership to remove Lieberman from his committee positions is going really well. Almost 4 thousand people have signed on in the last 12 hours and sent an email to their Senators and Harry Reid.
Take a look at the latest results: http://www.staceyforcongress.com/...

I've gotten more than one nasty email from DC consultants who are almost as upset about Lieberman's defeat as the GOP.
Here's just one, and remember this one is not only a Democrat, but someone within the DNC itself.
"When I met you in L.A. during the Spring Meeting.. I had no idea you were such a single issue pandering whack job.
Lieberman has voted with the Party 92.6% of the time. Thats more often than any single other person setting themselves up to run for the Dem Nomination in 08. He is one of the very few Incumbants that has managed to stay on the side of Harry Reid, supporting him on every issue regardless of how pointless it would end up being.. or how obvious the pointlessness of the arguement was to start with.
Joe has towed the line.. and towed it like a lemming.. and we reward him by allowing KOS and the Net-Ultra left to beat him over a SINGLE ISSUE. A SINGLE ISSUE!
This defeat for him wasn't about his being connected to his constutients.
It wasn't about his commentary on policy. His support for Reid. His Support for John Conyers. His Support for Hillary the insane. Or his dynamic defense on many fronts of Nancy Pelosi's right to be Minority leader. He lost on National DEFENSE.. WHICH IS NOT EVEN OUR MESSAGE OR OUR FRAME! He was beaten by Republican propaganda and the lunatic net-left that now think they are KING MAKERS!
Ned Lamont has single handedly changed the power structure of the party.
Removing a man who would have been one of the most powerful Dem's in a Dem controlled Senate and replacing him with a man that would have to be in the Senate for 3 terms just to get close to Liebermans closing stature. Lamont can not replace Joe, for years. Regardless of what Kos and Democracy against America wants you to beleive.
Your running for Congress in the Red South Pandering to D.F.A. members who have already written you off. Koss the kingmaker himself just stated on his Blog within the last week " We do not need a single southern state to win in 08". I'm one of the few DNC consulants still in the south trying to win rurally. Trust me when I say, " Your barking up the wrong tree."

It's really nice to be called a "Whack Job" in one breath then asked to swallow his sage advice in the next. He really is a DC consultant.
