A Daily Kos member, and Rasmussen poll subscriber, is reporting that Lieberman is doing very poorly in a poll to be released publicly early next week.
here are the numbers primary NED 51% JOE 41% general NED 40% JOE 40% GOP CAND 13% that`s all he said. specific data to come later.
I hope those numbers are true and accurate. If they are, things look very good for Lamont. Meanwhile, the Big Dog will be doing a big rally for Joseph L. on Monday in Waterbury. You can enter into a lottery if you want to attend. The Clintons continue their slide from liberal heroes into our sworn enemies. Look at this:

Feingold is slipping a little. That’s probably because he hasn’t been in the news very much in the last two months. Edwards seems to have picked up the slack. That’s fine by me. Edwards and Feingold should be leading the pack. It also looks like Armstrong has succeeded in making Warner the acceptable centrist candidate. The others can’t top 2%. Collectively, the other centrists have less votes than Warner. And all of them together cannot crack 20%.
So, the intellectual opinion leading Saab driving latte drinking tree hugging dirt munching wing of the Democratic Party is already completely hostile to centrism, accomodation, and the Clintons. Bill’s big rally for Joe Lieberman is not going to do Joe many favors. It may impress a few people and give Joe a tiny bump. The real damage though, is to Hillary’s prospects. I don’t envy Peter Daou. He has a thankless job.
