Well, this doesn’t happen very often, but I agree with this post by Markos:
Here’s what we all need to do the next few days:
- Push Harry Reid to strip Lieberman of all committee assignments.
- Let people know what a sore loser Lieberman is.
- Get all Democrats — including Bill Clinton — to publicly back Ned Lamont.
- Get the Democratic interest groups who backed Lieberman to switch allegiances in the general.
The DSCC and the DCCC will have to deal with the fact that this race will continue to suck oxygen from great pickup opportunities. And I won’t apologize for that, because as a proud Democrat, I will help in whatever way I can the Democratic nominee from the Great State of Connecticut.
Of course, I’m pretty certain that Reid won’t do shit about it. The boys’ club is more important than the will of the people, and if they don’t actually act like a real political party and freeze Lieberman out of the caucus they will prove what so many of us know … that the Democrats aren’t a real political party. I hope I’m wrong. I’ll post a mea culpa if I am.
I’m not holding my breath.
