Quotes of the day: Yes, it's QOTD Quiz time! Who said what about Iraq and Iran? (Don't worry, it's multiple choice--but watch out, there's a trick!)

>

(1) "If we walk away, then the Iranians will--as sure as I am talking to you--surge into Iraq, certainly take over the south and the oil there. We'll be paying six or seven bucks a gallon. And that'll just be the tip of it. I mean, there'll be instability and war throughout the Middle East."

(2) "The invasion of Iraq has had one winner, and that's Iran. It's an enemy that is not going away, but that has nothing to do with the war in Iraq. The war in Iraq has been a distraction and made us weaker."


Identify the speaker of each of the above quotes from the following list:

(a) a fugitive mental patient whose name had to be withheld on grounds of medical confidentiality

(b) the Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate from Connecticut, Ned Lamont

(c) the clueless defeated candidate for the Democratic Senate nomination, Joe "I Am Too a Democrat, More or Less" Lieberman

As you can see, there are three possible speakers for the two quotes. Obviously, there's a trick. Don't fall into the trap!
