Rivals Take Shots at Lieberman in Debate

HARTFORD, Conn. Oct 16, 2006 (AP)— Sen. Joe Lieberman might as well have worn a bull's-eye during Monday's debate with his Democratic and Republican rivals.

Democrat Ned Lamont labeled the three-term Connecticut senator a career politician in lockstep with President Bush on Iraq. Long-shot Republican Alan Schlesinger described himself as the only conservative in a race against two liberals, warning GOP voters about Lieberman's mostly Democratic voting record.

Lieberman took the jabs and delivered a few of his own.

"His finger-pointing … is the last thing Washington needs more of," Lieberman said of Lamont, accusing him of running a negative campaign.
