Open Forum

Ray Hackett calls blogs and bloggers examples of "vigilante politics."

I am vengeance. I am the night. I am... Blogman!

I really need to get my cape back from the cleaners.




More seriously, Scarce at My Left Nutmeg reports on an accident at Sailfest in New London and the heroism of a Lamont staffer.

The Moderate Voice comments on the Lamont/Lieberman race and its implications for moderates and centrists. Some of it I agree with, some of it not.

Site News: Comments are still moderated (although there was a moment after the debate and this weekend when they were not). I'm pretty pleased with the way comment moderation has worked so far. Even when comment moderation was off, people kept their conversations (mostly) civil. I've only had to delete a handful of posts.

A newspaper that recently reported that Joe Lieberman is running for President this year should exercise some restraint in denouncing the journalistic standards of others, particularly those who don't pretend to be journalists.

Love the graphic, GC!

You should of wore the mask and suit yesterday.

BranfordBoy already wacked Hackett over the head in his post at MLN, ctkeith breaks down the whole Hackett/Lieberman realtionship in the comment section of MLN, and I was going to write a rebuttal until I saw your post and laughed my ass off.

What's wrong with asking Democratic politicians whether or not they'll support the Democratic nominee for senate. Seems like a fair question to me. Shouldn't the Democratic voters in Connecticut know where their represenatives stand in this important issue?

PR-

No one expects any incumbent dems to endorse Lamont in the primary (well, some might, but they're being fairly unrealistic). What any and all Democrats have a right to expect is that other Democrats will support the winner of the primary, whoever the winner may be.
