How is Lieberman's Fundraising?

[WillyBrandt]

Does anybody know how well Holy Joe is doing moneywise this quarter? Money talks, and I suspect that fundraising tallies, if anything will decide whether Joe leaves or not?

(And I suspect Joe wouldn't want to be the first one to drop out, either. Ms. Braun... a little help?)

1. Ted Koppell is that you?

:+ joking!!! No idea here, BUT I did see on C-Span a bit about his daughter in a diner somehwere in NE.. Red ARrow?...doing some campaigning for her dad! She seemed nice...

2. He certainly gets alot of friendly coverage on Fox and talk radio.

And people wonder why Gore/Lieberman didn't ignite voter interest. Ha.

3. Joe's time has come

and gone.........

Joe's got the blues so bad, it's put a permanent frown on his face.

4. If recent reports are an indication

his fundraising isn't good at all. His campaign, according to CNN yesterday, asked workers to take voluntary payroll deferrals until they got matching funds. Others have reported that he failed to make payroll last time. That is not the evidence of a campaign successful in its fundraising.

5. Maybe he's on the Rat-publican payroll?

There's an old saying: Leave the party when it's at its most fun. Don't be the last to leave.

Joe "the Jester" Lieberman doesn't have the good sense to get out when he should. I've suspected for a long time that the Rim-publicans have asked him to hang in there until November 2004...just to divert a few votes from the front-runner.

It probably won't be very many, but every vote counts.

7. I heard...

it got a big bounce after Gore endorsed Dean, heh. If any of that lasted, who knows. He's getting more airtime than he has in the past six months after Saddam got caught. :eyes:

8. Of course he's getting more airtime.....

He's bashing Dean 24/7 and the media wants to continually plug him for they can bring down Dean.

9. It's not just Dean, you know

His comments are an attack on every anti-war candidate, and have even provided the media with talking points against them. It was Lieberman who first used the "Saddam would still be in power if" Dean had his way. Now it's being used against all anti-war candidates.

:grr:
