Your reign on the top was short like leprechaun

Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and other guy bringing Connecticut's black population to 3

Senator Joe Lieberman, no more? Ned Lamont squeaked by Joementum 52/48 in last night's primary fight in Connecticut, bringing to fruition the sexual fantasies of the Nutroots in poorly lit basements throughout the United States. Now we're half way to replacing a disloyal Senator with a guy who may or may not understand the legislative process! Hooray!

And, sadly, and predictably, Lieberman believes that Joementum will carry him to a victory in the general election, and will run as an Independent. Great. And the folks over at the Kos et al are committed to fully supporting Lamont, with Daphne himself saying today that he "will help in whatever way I can the Democratic nominee from the Great State of Connecticut." So that means a ton of money requests, etc... all funneling from the activists to Lamont, instead of Sheldon Whitehouse, Sherrod Brown, Jon Tester, Claire Mcaskill, Amy Klobuchar, and Harold Ford. So Lieberman, even in his death knells, continues to screw us.

So, I am pretty disaffected. It's great to see Lieberman lose. It feels fantastic to watch him equivocate and rationalize a loss to a literal and figurative lightweight. This guy ran for President, and was the nominee for Vice President. And he lost to a guy named Ned! That has got to hurt. So I can feel good about that. But, the expectations for Lamont are nonexistent; I don't know what to think about him, about his potential, about his politics, or about his ability. And if Joementum sticks in the race, I don't know what to think about what the Lamont supporters will do; we've got an outside chance to win the Senate, why exert effort on race that is already in the win column regardless?
