Wake up, Connecticut
...and smell the bullshit. Geez, I can smell it all the way from Hartford down here in Philly--and that's with olfactory senses rendered numb by the "Essington Essence". If Joe were really a team player, he would heed the wishes of Connecticut's Democrats and bow out gracefully. One small problem: the man has as little grace as he does honesty.

I believe there is a clear choice in the race for Senate this year. My opponent Ned Lamont, represents the old politics of partisanship, polarization and negativism.* BOHICA = Bend Over, Here It Comes Again
I offer a different way forward - a new politics of unity, purpose and hope, in which our top priority is not to win the election by tearing down our opponents but to help the people we serve build a better future.
[snip--Ah, the BOHICA* platform.]
I believe that the best way for us to win the war in Iraq is to come together - the administration, Congress, and Republicans and Democrats - to find a solution that will allow our troops to come home with Iraq united and free, with the Middle East stable and the terrorists denied a victory.
[snip--With liberty and ponies for all! Is this putz for real? Here we have what I might term the "Tinkerbell cum Kumbaya" approach to foreign policy: if we all just hold hands and clap louder (yes, I know you can't do both at the same time--that's kind of the point), we can fix Iraq and learn to have meaningful dialog with the Magic Dolphins.]
My opponent has a different idea: unilateral, arbitrary withdrawal, and never mind the consequences. [Lying bastard. So much for "Mr. Integrity."]
