Joseph Lieberman lost the Connecticut Democratic Primary last night. Now he's an "Independent".. Soon he will be a Republican. What's New?
It was reported today and confirmed that Karl Rove had a long conversation with Joseph Lieberman. What do you think they discussed? The new Secretary of Defense? The new "Republican" candidate for the Senate from Connecticut? Maybe they talked about Lieberman's vice presidential campaign in 2008 on the ticket with McCain.
Whatever the discussion, the world of American politics changed last night. I think it changed for the better. Kos and all of you who have fought so hard to help Lamont win are heroes.
Thanks to everyone who helped to send this message to ALL the incumbents. It's not a "given" anymore that you will be re-elected. It's about time the people's voices were heard.
I, for one, am glad to be a part of this revolution. Newt Gingrich, Karl Rove, Dick Cheney and George W. Bush can call us "insurgents" or whatever they like.
The fact is the "people" have spoken and will continue to speak. The right wing of the Republican party is losing its hold on America. The sun will come out... Tomorrow.
