Lieberman Ally Advises: Run As An Independent
June 13, 2006
By MARK PAZNIOKAS, Courant Staff Writer A prominent ally of U.S. Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman urged Monday that Lieberman run for re-election as an independent and not trust his career to left-leaning Democratic primary voters in August.

John F. Droney Jr., a former Democratic state chairman who helped Lieberman unseat Republican Sen. Lowell P. Weicker Jr. in 1988, said Lieberman should make his case for re-election to all voters in November.

"I think to be terrorized through the summer by an extremely small group of the Democratic Party, much less the voting population, is total insanity for a person who is a three-term senator," Droney said. snip

1. Gee
"I think to be terrorized through the summer by an extremely small group of the Democratic Party, much less the voting population, is total insanity for a person who is a three-term senator,"

That's just like when Al Qaeda flew those planes into the World Trade Center.

2. Yea, Droney also got the CT Dems to go for Clinton in the
1992 primary -- oh, wait, Jerry Brown won CT in 1992 - Droney is an idiot. He was part of the reason Curry didn't get any support in his runs against Rowland. Droney, Rowland's defense attorney, should shut the hell up!
