Why have so many mean lefty bloggers abandoned establishment Democrat Joe Lieberman, opting to support his opponent, Ned Lamont, instead? Well, there’s his position on the Iraq war, for one. But that’s hardly the nail in his coffin. Check out, for example, his ideas about women’s rights.
Unfortunately, the establishment democrats are turning out to campaign for Joe, despite the fact that his opponent’s views are much closer to the ideals of the Democratic party and progressives in general. Joe Biden, Ken Salazar, and Barbara Boxer (!) are all heading to Connecticut to lend Joe their support.
And right here, my friends, is the trouble with the Democratic party.
Support Ned Lamont.
