Democrats Rally Against Wal-Mart

I had written in a previous post on warning Democrats that they bash Wal-Mart at their peril. A majority of the people they claim to represent shop at Wal-Mart. They did not heed the warning. U.S. Sen. Joe Lieberman and opponent Ned Lamont showed up at a rally stop from a cross-country tour sponsored by WakeUpWalMart.com, a anti-Wal-Mart union-backed group.
"We're all together today in wanting to wake up Wal-Mart and say, 'Treat your workers fairly,'" Lieberman told several hundred people gathered outside in stifling heat. He later added, "It is time for the American people to get together to support Democrats who support working people."
"This is about waking up Wal-Mart and this is also about waking up corporate America," Lamont said.

Are more and more Democrats going to come out bashing Wal-Mart? I wonder if this Wal-Mart bashing will start being seen in the any of the national elections?
