I’m not one of these people that condemns what the wacky left is doing by challenging Lieberman over his proximity to the present. Contrary to what many seem to think, this is exactly what primaries are for. If the Democratic party wants to be the “cut and run” or appeasement party, then fine. These things are supposed to get resolved in primaries.

That being said, Republicans should be ecstatic if Lamont wins, because it will convince the Democrats that their anti-war, weak-on-defense message resonates with the people. Unfortantely for them, all races are not Democratic primaries in Connecticut with the whole world watching.
