This just arrived in my inbox from Ned Lamont, coming from a johnkerry.com address:

Hi Kathryn,
Last year, Connecticut Democrats heard my call for an end to the war in Iraq and nominated me to be their U.S. Senate candidate. The pundits derided our campaign, but John Kerry had my back. We didn’t win the general election, but the explosion of activist energy my campaign triggered helped change the debate nationally and led to Democrats winning a majority in both houses of Congress.
John Kerry and the new Democratic-majority Senate you helped elect are fighting to end the war in Iraq. They have passed legislation to set a deadline for bringing our troops home. But President Bush vetoed that bill, and Senate Republicans continue to act as a roadblock, giving cover for the President and planning to shoot down any attempts at challenging his potential veto.
Four of those Roadblock Republicans — Susan Collins (ME), John Sununu (NH), Norm Coleman (MN), and minority leader Mitch McConnell (KY) — will face the voters in 2008. Nothing changes a politician’s mind like the prospect of a tough challenge at the polls. ..
