Lamont licks Lieberman

Ned Lamont defeated incumbent Joe Lieberman in the democratic Connecticut primary. Mr. Lieberman immediately proved he was a democrat in name only by announcing an independent bid.


Jilted Joe

Garnering a miniscule amount of votes in his presidential bid was not enough rejection for Joe.

Being defeated as an incumbent in his home state was not enough rejection for Joe.

Is he now willing to become a spoiler and be relegated to the Ralph Nader lecture circuit?

How low can Joe go?

Here is an analysis of what Joe's vanity candidacy means for the democratic party: Jumpin' Joe

ADDENDUM: Here is a good analysis of what made Joe Lieberman a loser: Head in Clouds

And my two additional cents are, "It's Ned Lamont. He's a good candidate. He ran a good campaign. He's disciplined and quick-witted. He's good on camera. People like him. Sure Joe helped him by being as out of touch as George HW Bush with grocery-store technology, but what sunk Joe was Ned. Ned is the reason Joe lost. It's Ned I tells ya. Ned."
