Lieberman loses in CT, but will still run
Three term U.S. Senator from Connecticut Joseph Lieberman has lost his Democratic primary bid for re-election to challenger Ned Lamont by some 10,000 votes, in a hotly contested and carefully watched race that may prove to be a referendum on the Bush Administration and the unpopular war in Iraq.
Lamont, a wealthy cable executive, struck a chord with Connecticut voters by criticizing Lieberman’s support for the invasion of Iraq and his soft stance on other Bush policies. He took close to 52 percent of the votes, carrying many of the state’s smaller towns.
Lamont’s victory is widely believed to a bad omen for Democrats across the country who supported the war. It may signal a trend to turn out those incumbents and replace them with more moderate or progressive candidates.
