For the past six years every time I got peeved about a DLC candidate and started grumbling about not voting for them in the general if they won, the DLCers would mass attack me with words of "you change the party in the primary, but you vote for whomever is the candidate in the general."
Joe Lieberman's campaign has stated they would not support Lamont in the general election if Lamont were to win.
Where are all of the DLC condemnations of this behavior? Why hasn't the DLC dropped all support for Lieberman after such a move? When can I expect the announcement from Tom Vilsack, Al From, Hillary Clinton, and Tom Carper that they cannot support Joe any longer because Joe is attempting to divide the party, like the DLC so often claims the Left is doing?
I've gone along in every election and voted for the Democratic nominee every time. I did what the DLC said I had to do. Now, my future votes are dependent upon whether the DLC shows themselves to be the hypocrites I believe they are or if they stand up for the principles they claim to espouse.
If the DLC does not immediately pull all support from Lieberman, the DLC has proven what they are, and I will no longer feel compelled to vote for another DLC candidate ever again. Time to show your cards, DLC.
