I thought he was an independent now so what would they be able to do or say to him?

11. Thanks
I heard about him endorsing McCain but don't pay much attention to him otherwise. I think at that time he was the only senator in Washington endorsing McCain.

9. Me too.
This action by the DNC pleases me.

Was he one of Obama's superdelegates?

4. If we win just a few more Senate seats, Joe Lieberman can be stripped of committee jobs as well.
Tell him that we're gonna run Ned Lamont again when Joe's term ends. When he loses, maybe he can hang out more with his buddies at AIPAC offices along with Richard Perle and friends.

7. Has anyone actually asked Lamont if he'll run again?
I'd love to see him kick Joe's ass to the curb.

13. He's registered as a Democrat, but he doesn't technically represent the CT Dem Party.
Remember that there is nothing stopping anybody from registering as a Democrat. Just because you lose the primary doesn't mean you have to reregister as an Indie or a Repub.
