[lbo-talk] Lieberman

[Nathan Newman]

So what if Lieberman is ahead-- it's all mainly name recognition.  He's not
even in the top two in either Iowa or New Hampshire and is not even picking
up much financial support relative to the other major candidates.  Look at a
poll from this time in 1991-- I doubt if Clinton was at 5% in the polls
among Democrats.

Alarmingly, Gallup reports that Lieberman is leading the Dem field
among almost all demographic groups - men, women, whites, young,
old... Sharpton leads among blacks, but Lieberman is #2 (ahead of
Moseley Braun).

Further, Page Six reports today:
