O'Donnell fools self, but nobody else

Mickey Kaus just reminded me of something I forgot to mention in my Friday night follies, but remembered late last night as I drifted off. Larry O'Donnell made a preposterous laughable prediction that Joe Lieberman would be knocked off because Lowell Weicker would mobilize independents in some sort of Independent Party bid to knock Joe off! Mickey puts it this way:

MyCocoon: Chris Bowers at My DD on the Lamont/Lieberman poll showing Lieberman ahead 53-41-4 in a three-way race with tarnished Republican Alan Schlesinger:

With Schlesinger bound to cut into Lieberman's newfound Republican base, Lieberman has nowhere to go but down. [Emphasis added]

Bowers doesn't really believe that, does he? Tell me he's just spinning. ... Lieberman could increase his 63-35% lead among independents, for example. ... P.S.: The most powerful evidence yet that Lieberman won't drop out: Lawrence O'Donnell declares he will!

Now it appears that O'Donnell has gone so completely Hollyweird bonkers that his brain cells are practically withered to a crisp [good coke and better weed does it every time]. But the McLaughlin Group still keeps this has-been for ethnic solidarity reasons, perhaps, as Larry mentions his Irish origins once a session with aging Micks like McL and Buchanan.

Anyhow, master Zeitgeist guide Kaus in a bit from Slate above links to the drug-addled L O'D and it's not hard to fisk, frisk this epitome of blarney from internal evidence of his fact-challenged overwritten happy horsefeathers:

Now, both Clintons and everyone else in the Party are carrying Lamont on their shoulders.

Oh yeah, what a pair of shoulders and

Correction:

Six Dem Senators, including DSCC DepChair Mark Pryor, are supporting Joe Lieberman, as are some Congressmen. Names: Pryor, Carper, Ben Nelson, Inouye, Salazar, Landrieu. Like WaPo Dan Balz, who looks straight but may be a secret snorter, the Dem left just lies to itself.

O'Donnell's factless "opinion piece" is on Yahoo.com/Puffington Host, and demonstrates why Time Inc evidently ditched this hack.

Also, don't hire this Larry dude as a consultant as he neglects among all the white-line grandiosity to mention that the Jewish money might come sluicing Joe's way as the anti-Israeli overtones of Lamont's insurrection become apparent. Just a little oversight by pretty-boy Larry. Makes a cute cheerleader, though for lost causes.
