		<description>Why can&#039;t the dolt shut-up?  

&quot;...I&#039;ve lusted after pin-ups&quot;. 

Huh?

&quot;...I&#039;ve asked WWAD (What Would Amy Do)?&quot;  

Double huh?

&quot;...I wuz chased by a rild wabbit!&quot;  

Ok, whatever. //cue tweeting birds and rotate finger around circumference of left ear//

All was forgiven and fine with that habitat thang.  

Then he thot&#039;d he&#039;d be America&#039;s unappointed &quot;grandfatherly&quot; statesman.  

Psst. There&#039;s a reason why we didn&#039;t get King George Washington, even tho it was conferred by popular vote -- absolute power corrupts...  Altho in his case, the adage should be &quot;Absolute madness corrupts absolutely&quot;

And this guy used to run a nuke sub?  Was he really an nuclear engineer &amp; protege of Admiral Hyman Rickover, or did he just work in the &quot;boiler&quot; room?  

Multimedia clips of Homer Simpson comes to mind for every scene.

As you point out, when it comes to meddling and undercutting our elected leaders, he was an equal opportunity c**kb***ker.

Nonetheless, to this day, he&#039;s still batting an even 1000 -- in whiffs.

Speaking of strikeouts.  Love or hate Ann Richards, she was dynamite in Texas politics.</description>

		<description>Aaron,

You are probably right that in Connecticut, it is a plus but my comment was to highlight how writers put their opinions into articles.  A good journalist would have asked a Lamont supporter how Carter&#039;s endorsement would help Lamont and then quoted that person in the article.  A better journalist would have then gone to a Lieberman supporter and asked the same question and then quoted both in the article and let the reader make up their own mind.  This &lt;strike&gt;journalist&lt;/strike&gt; political hack just wrote their opinion into the article and called it a “news”.   If they want to insert their opinions into articles, write an editorial and publicize it as one.</description>

		<description>Muffin...wow.  

I can&#039;t say that they won&#039;t try it, and for that, you have freaked me out more than any Stephen King novel, with a sentence.

Brilliant work.</description>

		<description>&quot;Did anyone else notice the bias in the article which automatically concludes that Carter endorsing Lamont is a plus?&quot;

I&#039;d venture that in CT, an endorsement from Carter &lt;i&gt;is&lt;/i&gt; a plus.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Lamont’s campaign got a boost Wednesday from former President Carter&lt;/i&gt;

Did anyone else notice the bias in the article which automatically concludes that Carter endorsing Lamont is a plus?

As far as New Jersey goes, why don&#039;t they get Lautenberg to run.  With about a month to go in 2004, he was a last minute replacement for the Dem who was going to get beat.  Lautenberg could resign his current seat, Corzine could appoint a Dem replacement, he could then be placed on the ballot just like two years ago and get elected.   Dems keep the seat.  Better yet, the replacement Dem could resign just after the election, and Corzine could appoint Menendez.  What could be better?  The Dems would still have Lautenberg and Menedez as Senators.</description>

		<description>That&#039;s entirely possible, but no one on the Dem side said anything when Lieberman made that decision. For someone to claim that this is the reason now for this behaviour would seem to be making up excuses after the fact.</description>

		<description>One possible cause for the antipathy to Lieberman was that he concurrently ran for VP and Senator in 2000.  Had a few hundred Floridians voted the other way, the Republican governor of Connecticut would have likely named a Republican to his Senate seat and tilted the balance of power there.</description>

		<description>TMS - HRC gets a pass on this issue primarily because Joe took Clinton to the woodshed over his MonicaGate thing - that&#039;s basically the bee in their bonnet, the war is mostly incidental. Even though Bill Clinton thanked him later (for basically pulling his nether regions out of the fire), the hostility remains in many quarters. Illogical, but there you have it.</description>
