189. actually from another August blog she says the following
JOE STILL DOESN'T GET IT

A final Quinnipiac poll shows Lamont ahead of Lieberman 51%-45%, which is closer than a previous Q poll that showed Lamont with a 13-pt lead a week ago. Never learning any lessons, Lieberman is already crowing about winning. He the New York Daily News: "I feel they were flirting with the other guy for a while, wanting to send me a message.

I got their message. I think they want to send me back to Washington," he said. "I am thinking victory."

Umm no. That wasn't the message. If Lieberman wins, and that is a big "if", he should take a look at why people are so enraged by him. He will discover that for many it wasn't just him supporting the war. What was too much was Lieberman ripping a page out of the Karl Rove playbook and insinuating that people who oppose the war are hurting America.

As Lieberman famously said: "It's time for Democrats who distrust President Bush to acknowledge he'll be commander in chief for three more years. We undermine the president's credibility at our nation's peril."

That quote of course implies that President Bush actually has credibility that can be undermined. But setting that aside, it is the kind of statement that Democrats have to endure from Republicans, but we don't have to listen to it from a member of our own party. Lieberman wasn't just saying that he supports the war, a position that even many Democrats could grudgingly accept from a Senator that votes with the Democratic Party 90% of the time. He was saying that if you don't support the war then you should just shut up.

this doesn't sound like she's a Joe 100% supporter.

I think Powers has opinions - some of which i may not share (i'm a lot tougher on Joe for example)- but on the whole she's smart, reflective, and polished. I like her alot.

Owww- and she's incredibly hot.
