Connecticut Senate Race-- VOTE FOR JOE !
Connecticut's Senate Race ends this Tuesday -- Primary Election Day in Connecticut. Senator Joseph Lieberman -- the Senator from Connecticut who ran with Liberal Al Gore as his Vice Presidential partner is up for re-nomination. His opponent is Norm or Ned? Lamont, a millionaire businessman cable TV executive.
Mr. Lieberman faces the quandary of many long serving good incumbents -- he is too successful; too reasonable; and too broad minded. That destroys partisan politics - but creates issue politics.
Good politicking, called compromising by some, can cost. If he really has disenchanted many Democrats who have, in the student and New York suburban rich state, who have embraced anti-Iraqi War polics - so be it. They may fly to Lamont as if by magic carpet. If not, then rally to a good man and re-elect him.
If he wins Tuesday's primary election -- no problem for Democrats. If he loses, the centrist, and Liberal Democrat -- except for some on the war issue, will run for his seat as an independent. Not as apart wrecker -- but for the causes of his and his constituency's values.
This blogger 'scottmcon' wholly endorses Mr. Lieberman -- for his experience, his savvy, and his good conscience. Joe Lieberman is being castigated by his party's anti-war wing because he cannot deny or say no to a Just Cause; not even a Republican President's bi-partisan's Operation Just Cause. He has endorsed helping another nation to reconstruct itself in freedom.
Many Connecticut voters in the tight party regulars event -- no last minute cross-over voters Tuesday - pre-registered Democrats, should remember the experience and seniority three terms - 18 years - gives to a US Senator. Many good Democrats should remember the good stride and style of Senator Henry M. "Scoop" Jackson of Washington State. Lieberman is a Scoop Jackson Democrat.
Cannot remember who coined Lieberman an "Emergency Republican" as a vote in the 2000 presidential election -- but it fits. On war and defense issues - - he'll vote in good consicence for security and a good defense - -like Scoop Jackson did (and without the Boeing factory either) and as a good Democrat.
Lastly, do the well-meaning anti-war and anti-Lieberman Democratic voters understand that a sure three-way post Primary contest would pit the centrist Lieberman against any Democrat with similar values and any Republican? Three into two equals: [?].
No Democratic Senator will beat Joe Lieberman on their party's bread & butter issues. None will be more rationally sounded or Liberal.
Send Joe Lieberman back to the US Senate for his experience, his consicience - his good judgement. Vote your conscience --as he always does.
A party is a label, and a political organizing tool. A vote by a political delegate - a representative's vote is for you and for the his conscience. There will be no opportunism nor ratiocination with Joe Lieberman .. only a good vote.
Vote for experience and reason Tuesday. Vote for and in good conscience.
