Arianna Huffington, in her column the day after Joe Lieberman's defeat in Connecticut, said "This is a spoiler alert!.........
I'm talking about Joe Lieberman's selfish, self-serving, spoiled-rotten attempt to undercut Ned Lamont's historic victory -- and, ultimately, Democrats' chances of retaking control of Congress in November." I think the truth of her emotionally charged rambling is in her concern about the Democrats retaking control of Congress. I do not see Liebermans loss as any indication of a dissatisfaction about the war in Iraq. Connecticut, after all, has closed primaries. So it could be an indication that Democrats don't like the war in Iraq. But we already knew that. And Lieberman's stand has been an indication of his dissatisfaction with the Democrats. And I think we already knew that. But Huffington goes on to say that a Lieberman run as an Indepedent would kick the "will of the Democratic voters to the curb." I think that make Lieberman viable. If the Democrats are so right, then what do they have to worry about. Hufffington's alarm suggest some fear and uncertainty.
