An environmentalist group that once held up Connecticut Senator Joseph Lieberman as an “environmental champion” is so far witholding its financial backing for the embattled Democrat, RAW STORY has learned.
The League of Conservation Voters, which has endorsed a key group of senators and representatives it believes are good on environmental policy in Congress, has pledged to provide funding for several senators, according to the National Journal’s Congress Daily PM. However, the group has so far failed to fund Lieberman’s campaign, though it did endorse him. […]
The report also notes that the Sierra Club has witheld its endorsement from Lieberman.
Kudos to the Sierra Club and league of Conservation Voters (even if, as I suspect, they are only doing so out of fear that Lamont might win rather than conviction).
Not as damning as the Insurance industry dumping him, but a positive sign. Maybe the start of a trend? Let’s hope so.
