I cannot tell you how disappointed i am with leadership in the Democratic Party and with some of the base...

If Blumenthal was a Republican we would be all over this like white on rice. Yet, I see some in this party defending the fact that this man lied.
There is no excuse that he can give that will make this right.
Yeah, Yeah I know some will say "well, the repubs are the ones who did this"
Well, Yeah! We would have done the same thing if the shoe were on the other foot and we would be calling for his resignation. So I think that democrats who support this guy are going down the wrong road here.
See what happened last night? Specter lost and Lincoln has to go to a run-off. The party leaders did not listen to the people and they tried to tell us what to do. They lost.
Now with this Blumenthal incident they are still not listening to the people and are out there supporting him. He will lose.
So the political leadership and its supporters better not play this one because it will damage this party if they push this.
The climate out there is not tolerant of crooks and liars and anyone who falls under one or both of these headings will be crushed.
I just cannot believe some who say this guy did nothing wrong or so what.
So What?????
The freaking guy lied and he kept on lying. There is a pattern.
And do not tell me well the Republican woman running against him is no better herself. I.do.not.care. We are not Republicans. We are freaking progressives and we stand for something.
Those in our ranks who stand behind this man should be ashamed!!!
Have you no principles???
You get out here talking about repubs having no principles yet you can support someone in your ranks who is a rank liar.
Come on. This guy needs to go and we need to get someone else in there.
We do not have time for games.
This coming election is a BFD and we need to hold every damn thing we can hold and right now CT is at risk with this bozo.,
Move the F on People.
I am one pissed off progressive who is tired of the equivocating and bullcrap.
We need Dems who are authentic, honest and willing to do the work that progressives have worked hard for.
So get this shit done and lets move the fuck on.
Kick his ass to the curb now!!!
