Option 2 is the best from an electoral standpoint.

But 3 or 4 would be most accurate.

Lieberman for Bush sounds about right.

Your a far left, extremist.

And you're a dull-witted troll.

I guess if you are a Bush-Democrat who is pro-torture and pro-illegal aggressive immoral warfare.

But then you'd be a Republican...

In a bizzaro world.

If he was anything remotely close to a loyal Democrat he would have said "hey, I tried but I lost my party's primary. I'm endorsing Ned Lamont, the Democratic nominee even though I disagree with him on certain issues." It wouldn't have been that hard to do.

"Connecticut Against Lamont" would have been the most accurate choice.

Lieberman is a loyal democrat he has always been and always will be. That being said i support lamont for one reason he won the primary.  That is what the Ct voters wanted and that should be respected.  I also do not like the arrogance of Joe's position, that this seat is his until he says it not.

Um, no.  That is what Connecticut Democrats wanted -they, however, are not to be confused with the broader Connecticut electorate which, so far as I know, are standing by 'Likud Joe' as the DailyKos crowd calls him.

I do not know if CT has open or closed primaries but either way it does not matter what ind. voters want its what democratic voters want its there primary.  if the indpendents wanted joe to win they could have choose to register as dems and voted for Joe.  That point being mute if it was an open primary than your arguement is completly pointless.

It was a closed primary.  By the way, has there ever been a recent poll where LaMont ever led Lieberman?

there has never been EVER a general election that has Lamont tied or ahead. And Quinnipiac has never had him closer than 10 in the general. The closest has been two points from Rasmussen and ARG......

"Lieberman for Lieberman" is of course the only accurate description.

Seriously though, something involving the word "people" always looks good.

I think the most accurate title though it would not fit on the ballot would be:

"I Can't Believe That The Democratic Party Has Moved So Far to the Left that Even Though I have Incredibly High Scores From All Liberal Organizations They Still Voted Me Out in the Primary For So Empty Suit" Party
