I can't believe there are so many Democrats in CT who are so stupid as to vote for this idiot who can't even say he would prefer his own party to control the House.
If Lamont beats Lieberman and the GOP keeps control of the Senate, Ned will be totally useless to the people of Connecticut. Totally. Utterly. Joe, OTOH, is the ranking member of Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs. He's a powerful member of other committees, too. What can Joe do for you? A hell of a lot, actually. He already has, in fact-- that's why he's going to beat Ned Lamont rather easily. How can the voters (regardless of party) be stupid for choosing a guy who brings government money/projects to a small state? I was surprised that Dodd will be appearing in ads for Ned. It seems obvious, yes, but I was still surprised.
If the Dems take the Senate, booting Lieberman is even stupider. He'd then be the Chair or a Senate Committee. Ned doesn't change the balance of power in the Senate, so he has no influence among even Democrat leadership there. Electing Lamont makes no sense.
