"In terms of, you know, the pollsters and media guys, we were kryptonite," Lamont said "That's OK. I didn't need 'em, and frankly, I didn't want 'em. "Support for Lamont began to build with "the Starbucks crowd," wealthy and highly educated voters, and then spread down the socioeconomic ladder, according to Douglas Schwartz, Quinnipiac University's poll director. Swan tapped into a robust network of progressive voters. If Democrats in the larger cities felt ties to Lieberman, their small-town counterparts did not, and Lamont visited town after town. Teresa Barton recalls inducing 16 people to attend a February event in Killingly, in the rural northeast corner of the state; at that single event, she said, Lamont won the votes of six Democratic Party delegates. By May, when the delegates convened to nominate a candidate for the Senate, Lamont had 505 delegates, a third of the total number, and twice as many as he needed to force a primary race. On the stump, Lamont hammers away at a range of issues -- universal healthcare, abolishing No Child Left Behind, weaning the country off hydrocarbons -- but circles back to the war. "It's so important that we take the American face off this occupation," he said, at a recent stop in Killingworth "What we're doing now is not working. I think our troops have done everything we've asked them to do To me, the war in Iraq is a defining issue in our country. I talk to young people, and they're asking what kind of country we are. How much do we compromise in the name of this war, and do we compromise our values along the way?"When people ask about experience -- could he save jobs in a military shipyard, as Lieberman did? -- he responds by advocating the return of "citizen-legislators" over career politicians. "In my opinion, he's amazing," said Orman, who is not affiliated with the campaign "He's a Greenwich multimillionaire.
We've got a battle between a millionaire and a multimillionaire, and the multimillionaire is coming off as the populist. "If Lamont wins the primary Tuesday, he will begin to address that message to a much broader audience trampled by turtles trouble . That is the moment that Jennifer Duffy of the Cook Political Report refers to as "the pivot," and it often requires candidates to reposition themselves toward the political center. If Lieberman loses, he plans to run as an independent, and a July 20 poll from Quinnipiac University showed Lieberman winning in a three-way race. Lamont, though, shows no signs of repackaging himself. "My deal with Swan," his campaign manager, "is he handles the politics He won't even tell me what the polls say freshwater turtles . I don't really want to know," Lamont said. If he has learned one thing in the race, he said, it is that "the media and politicians don't understand the wisdom of the American people. "And by now, after watching "the world . . softshell turtle . turned upside down in seven months," even the handlers are keeping their hands off, said Collins, the senior advisor to the campaign. "His credibility is that he's unique He's genuine," Collins said trampled by trutles . "It's almost like tinkering with a beautiful grandfather clock You can do a lot of damage by tinkering with it too much. " Trampled by Turtles - myspace . Since California Adventure made its debut six years ago, billed as Disneyland's hipper, edgier younger sibling, the entertainment colossus founded by Walt Disney has wandered far from the Orange County city where he launched his first park in 1955. Now, with Disney executives planning a massive retooling of the struggling California Adventure, the company is showing a renewed push to transform Anaheim's Resort District -- as much as possible -- in the image of the spectacularly successful Walt Disney World. Rather than a one- or two-day stop for guests, Disney hopes to keep visitors at its Anaheim attractions for longer stretches. "They see a hub here they didn't realize they had," suggested Al Lutz, who owns and edits the popular fan website Miceage. While the California Adventure makeover is the clearest sign yet that Disney is looking homeward, there have been recent signals the company was reinvesting in Anaheim. Last month, Disney announced it was adding 50 time-share units to the Grand Californian Hotel & Spa and broke ground on a 250-room expansion. There are also plans to bring its popular cruise line to the West Coast and capture big-spending consumers with boutique hotels. And there is continued speculation about a long-awaited third park on what is 53 acres of strawberry fields and parking lots. The California Adventure remodel comes at a time when tourism is booming in Orange County, with a reported 45 million visitors last year -- a six-year high -- and a record $8 billion in visitor spending. "This will be kind of a second renaissance for the area," said Elaine Cali, a spokeswoman for the Anaheim/Orange County Visitor and Convention Bureau.
"The first came when they built California Adventure, Downtown Disney and expanded the Convention Center. "At the same time, Disney and Anaheim city leaders have been locked in a stormy yearlong dispute over a proposal to build condominiums and low-cost apartments near the parks. The battle has fueled a lawsuit, competing ballot initiatives and regular protests at council meetings -- odd behavior in a city that had a cozy relationship with Disney. Disney has found itself face-to-face with union and religious leaders who have demanded that the entertainment giant do more to provide affordable housing for its low-wage earners . It seems certain to be a campaign issue in next year's city elections.
