52% of Lamont voters feel Prez should be impeached

Other interesting stats from the latest Rasmussen poll on the CT Senate race:

Senator Joe Lieberman’s decision to run as an Independent sets up a lively campaign season for Connecticut voters. In the first General Election poll since Ned Lamont defeated Lieberman in Tuesday’s primary, the incumbent is hanging on to a five percentage point lead. Lieberman earns support from 46% of Connecticut voters while Lamont is the choice of 41% (see crosstabs).

A month ago, the candidates were tied at 40% each.

Republican Alan Schlesinger earns just 6% of the vote, down from 13% a month ago.

57% of the state’s voters view Lieberman as politically moderate while 51% see Lamont as liberal.

Half (52%) of Lamont voters believe Bush should be impeached and removed from office. Just 15% of Lieberman voters share that view.

Overall, 55% of Connecticut voters trust Lieberman more than Lamont when it comes to the War on Terror. Thirty-one percent (31%) trust Lamont.

Thirty-one percent (31%) have a Very Favorable opinion of Lieberman, 18% Very Unfavorable.

For Lamont, the numbers are 19% Very Favorable, 23% Very Unfavorable.

Lieberman still attracts 35% of votes from Democrats. Lamont will have to find a way to trim that number without alienating unaffiliated voters. Lieberman is viewed at least somewhat favorably by 65% of unaffiliated voters compared to 49% for Lamont.

What I’d like to know is: What’s Lamont’s position on the issue of impeachment? Perhaps he should consult his proxies first, you know, the ones he doesn’t know about.

Hat tip: AJ Strata

More: Nothing on impeachment, but he did note here in an interview today with FoxNews’ Chris Wallace that the President ought to be “censured.”

      This is akin to listening in hopes of understanding, to some eight year old, undisciplined child throwing a riggin’ fit in the checkout lane at your local stuper market.

      The basis is as simple as their long lists of inabilities. Spoiled, instant insistence, selfish gratification, lack of anything worth having and an overabundance of enablers, are all parts of this recipe for self-imposed disaster and ruin. Meet the democrats of today, a disgusting lot of freeloaders and as handy to have around as a full blown leper. Though I’m sure the leper “feels” he too, should be censured.

      Passing Chicago’s Art Institute this afternoon were a small group of moonbats with signs saying, “Honk if you’re for impeachment”, or words to that effect. Too bad I was on the wrong side of Michigan Av. Too bad my 10yr old daughter was in the car. Too bad these moonbats haven’t anything better to do.

      Too bad there’s moonbats……we’d be a helluva lot closer in wrappin’ it up w/o their continued aid and support for the troops. I guess they meant the other sides troops.

      pencil neck lamont was on meet the depressed, what a loser, I ‘d sure be proud to be supported by naraal, rev. sharpton, jackson and code pinkie.
      I hope Joe doesn’t back down on his Indep. run, I saw where the College Republicans are supporting him and if I had the $$$$$ I’d send a mega check off to Joe today.:d

      - I’m pretty sure ‘ole Joe will beat the Marxicrats in the fall like a drum. Remember, Lamont barely garnered a 52%, even amongst Democrats, let alone Independents and cross over Republicans. all the Libtards have managed to “win” is one less Dem seat in Congress. Way to go asshats.
