LOL at Lieberman not knowing how to put his website back up.  He ought to have a chat with Ted Stevens.

Lieberman campaigned as a liberal in this primary (you should have seen his endorsements page on his website -- Republican-free, plastered with unions, Planned Parenthood, liberal Democratic friends, the pro-gay Human Rights Campaign, and other joke hack organizations that value incumbency more than who will actually further their cause).  So it will be interesting to see how he campaigns as an Independent, and to see whether all of the people mentioned in the previous sentence will stick with him if he ditches total liberalism to appeal to the state as a whole.

"A check from Hillary Clinton’s HILLPAC is being cut to Ned Lamont for five thousand dollars. She’s the first one to be counted on and make good on her promise to support the winner of the Connecticut primary."

Lamont's speech was about one of the worst "victory speeches" I've ever heard, so adolescent and juvenile, geez. 

That's the quality might end up losing him the general election, when I think he probably has a slight advantage now.  It really appears to me like he could show himself up to being an empty suit before the general commences.  I give it about a 50% chance.
