Does anyone much about Ned Lamont?

He gets really big points for not being Joe Lieberman. No seriously, that is a major plus.

Punishingly Intricate

whoa whoa whoa back up!

the defendent was wearing a white bubble skirt that barely covered her ass, one of those shrunken-belly baring one button jackets in blue seersucker over a black bra and white 4 inch stiletto slingbacks.

And you guys found her NOT guilty?!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I feel free to believe that God created life and in evolution.

I got an email last night from one of the most popular girls in high school-- she got my email address and had been DYING to ask if it was me that she saw on some game show years ago.

And, was it you, bon bon?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

And, was it you, bon bon?

Oh, yeah.

Does anyone much about Ned Lamont? I finally watched Monday's Colbert report, and I think maybe he's my new secret politican boyfriend.

Oh yeah. So far he's gotten the first of my contributions this election season. I'm on pins and needles waiting for Tuesday.

bon bon, FUN! It's cool when people from the past get in touch.

My class had their 15th year reunion (a year late even) this year and I had planned on going because I know weigh less than I did then and I look so much better, but grad school got in the way. But they sent a list of email and snail mail addresses and I'm tempted to do a special holiday letter to the people I liked from high school.

I like him on Colbert, but I must say I'm less than thrilled with some of his supporters when they pull a stunt like this: [link]

I can't say that Lamont has handled it all that well from the sounds of it, either. I still think he's the better option, and he carried himself well on Colbert, but what were they thinking? Leiberman's already got a ton of negatives to publicize and his numbers are tanking. Why pull this kind of shit that's doesn't do much but give Leiberman's supporters some ammo? I'm not even sure I get what the image is supposed to imply.

Oh yeah, that is awesome, bon bon. Love it!

I just booked my plane ticket for Thanksgiving. Even already, it would have been pretty pricey, going Weds-Sun, so I'm going Tues-Sat. Eh.

For other days, I don't know what the hell is going on, but USAir is selling tickets to Boston for $100 ROUND TRIP. Madness!

Well, the image was obviously a bit of really bad judgement on the part of one blogger, and, worse, was muddled enough not to even get its intendend message, Lieberman as panderer and phony, across. And as soon as it came to light and someone pointed out how utterly tasteless it was, she removed it.

Very unfortunate, especially in the last days before the election. But really - a non-issue, IME. It's not like it was a Lamont staffer, or anyone particularly affiliated with him. When people like Michelle Malkin are leading the charge to make it a big deal, I call bullshit.
