Senate colleagues to help quisling Bush asskisser, screw democracy
Who supports Democratic voters? Not these guys -

Joe Biden, Barbara Boxer, and Ken Salazar (of Colorado) plan to campaign in Connecticut for Joe Lieberman between now and the Aug. 8 primary.

The rush of support from his pathetic, tone-deaf Senate colleagues comes two days after Lieberman told Dems "fuck you surprised Democrats by announcing that he would start collecting signatures for an independent campaign if he loses the primary.

Lieberman's move toward an independent bid put national party chickenshits leaders in a bind. Many support Lieberman personally for some goddamn reason, but they also are eager to tap the anti-war sentiments of many liberals in hopes of recapturing Congress this fall.

"I'm not sure, in a year where people are fed up with Washington, having a bunch of Washington politicians travel the state for Joe Lieberman will help at all," said Ned Lamont campaign manager Tom Swan. "It would only reinforce the idea that Joe is more about Washington than Connecticut."
