Sunday Mornin Comin Down

Joe Leiberman, that is.

From the Lamont for Senate site, the chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee slaps Leiberman, and Lamont savages him:

DCCC Chairman Rahm Emanuel in today’s Washington Post

Rep. Rahm Emanuel (Ill.), chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, said Friday he is not worried about the fallout from the Senate primary on House races, arguing that the message from Connecticut is that anyone supporting Bush’s war policies is in deep trouble. “What’s playing out here is that being a rubber stamp for George Bush is politically dangerous to life-threatening,” he said.


Indeed. And it’s dangerous for Republicans as well. That’s why you see them flying the president in under-cover for fundraisers, taking the word “Republican” off their website, and falling over themselves on the way to the microphone to criticize the President. Yet one remains steadfast in his un-yielding support for the president, and on Tuesday, we have a shot to replace him with Ned Lamont in the United States Senate.


Lamont is right: The Republicans are running away from Bush. But Leiberman continues to defend failure.
