It's generally forgotten -- and never mentioned in discussions of the Dodd (pere/Duffy/Weicker race that Duffey was the anti-Vietnam war dove. Dodd, unlike his son, was an agressive anti Castroite and anti-communist. Weicker was a raging war hawk, and a conservative. Only later did his world view develop those amazing twists and turns for which he became famous. His pro-war message was one of the reasons Weicker was able to prevail in the race.Don Pescihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11167988001948356357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10214263.post-1143917587643684742006-04-01T13:53:00.000-05:002006-04-01T13:53:00.000-05:00there's also the chance a meteor strike will end c...there's also the chance a meteor strike will end civilization prior to NovemberAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10214263.post-1143914534181644592006-04-01T13:02:00.000-05:002006-04-01T13:02:00.000-05:00The Lieberman campaign is off the a great start wi...The Lieberman campaign is off the a great start with their message development - offline and online!<BR/><BR/>Offline: Criticizing Bush is unpatriotic, criticizing Lieberman is personal.
