Quotable

Matt Stoller at MyDD has one of the funniest and most memorable quotes about a political campaign that I've seen this side of Hunter Thompson's "Fear and Loathing: On the Campaign Trail '72." His post-debate analysis is skewed in favor of Lamont, but this line is too good to not quote.

It's not that Lamont has overperformed, or that Joe has melted down, it's that Connecticut Election 2006 has gone off the deep end. It's not your normal white picket fence suburban election, with attack ad facing attack ad. No, this is more like a white picket fence election that suddenly gets bored with life and decides to live in the forest, take a bunch of LSD, trout-fish naked, and taunt a bear cub before ending its life suddenly and with total and inexplicable resolution on November 7.
