Watch the Video: 14 Days to Put Lamont Over the Top

Lamont_video
Watch Ned's Message to DFA

From Jim Dean at Democracy for America:
Three months ago, Joe Lieberman led Ned Lamont in the polls by more than forty points. But you took a chance on Ned and thousands of DFA members around the country pitched in to help his insurgent campaign. The result? Two new polls show that Ned Lamont has surged into a narrow lead over Lieberman. 

Now we have the chance to put Ned Lamont over the top. Ned has recorded an exclusive video for DFA members to give you an update on the final 14 days. Click here to watch the video and find out how you can get involved:

The story of an insurgent, people-powered candidate moving to the top of the polls against the Democratic establishment is not new. My brother, Howard, was in a similar position three and a half years ago in the 2004 presidential primary. I don't need to remind you about what happened when the Beltway Democrats placed a giant target on his back and took aim. Let's make sure that history doesn't repeat itself with Ned Lamont.

We have a plan to fight back and win. Over the next few weeks, we'll be working closely with DFA members in Connecticut towards a Lamont victory on August 8. DFA members will be pounding the pavement and knocking on doors in a massive effort to get out the vote. Click here to watch Ned's video and find out how you can get involved:

It's going to be close -- now let's close the deal.  Thank you again for everything.

Sincerely,
Jim Dean, Chair
Democracy for America

GO NED!!! Not only is a win for Lamont important for all the obvious reasons but it's important to send a strong message to those entrenched incumbent candidates that their re-election is NOT an entitlement. Ignore your constituents in Washington and your constituents will ignore you in the voting booth.
