HARTFORD, Conn. - Millionaire businessman Ned Lamont opened a double-digit lead over veteran Sen. Joe Lieberman less than a week before Connecticut’s Democratic primary, according to a poll released Thursday.

Lamont, a political novice, had support from 54 percent of likely Democratic voters in the Quinnipiac University poll, while Lieberman, now in his third term, had support from 41 percent of voters. The sampling error margin was plus or minus 3 percentage points.

Fucking jon alterman on MSNBC saying only "lazy analysts" would credit the blogs

Friggin Lamont had 19% (In just the Primary!) against Lieberman having like almost 70% in the dem primary back when this started...who were the ones crusading this whole damn thing?

Fuck anti-DailyKos people, its been Lamont and us

Seriously though, you have to respect a site that gets so much buzz for no-name candidates, and thats their primary goal

Dead issues, lost politicians, they try everything to get things working

Yet strangely, they are called moderate sellouts and liberal crazies at the same time

What irritates me the most is not his point of view, but his arrogance. Everything he posts is gospel and no other points of view are to be considered.

His point of view does come in a close second though

If you write in a respectful manner, you will not be prunned

What happens is some conservative democrat trolls up a thread and then he gets a troll rating

it's a movement, not a debating forum

They pick the topics, and we discuss how best to press forward, we don't discuss that maybe the whole topic is stupid and Kos is stupid...the site is about crashing the gates

Also, several of the most recommended Diares have been anti-Markos, they stayed up at the top of the page for DAYS

If I were arrogant, I would have deleted them or just edited the recommendations silently so it died silently

Also, if you've seen him on TV, he's an extremely relaxed and cool guy

His only arrogance-ness comes from how someone has to be when you are "crashing the gates"

This will be a huge win for Daily Kos, people powered movements, and the power of blogging to effect national change if he wins the primary.

It's really unbelievable.
