“We wanted folks from Connecticut up there with Ned, but plans sometimes don’t happen,” Mr. Swan said. “Folks decided to go up to the party and get up on stage. And you couldn’t see supporters like Lowell Weicker because they were in the audience, Lowell because of his hip replacement,” Mr. Swan added, referring to the former senator.

That quote is the epitome of cluelessness - as if having Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton flank Lamont on primary night wasn't bad enough, his campaign manager actually wanted to have Lowell Weicker up on the podium. Weicker is still radioactive in Connecticut years after bringing in the hated state income tax...

I disagree. So many in CT will vote for Lamont regardless who's on stage with him. CT voters, in general, are the dumbest. They stand in line at the poll with politicians' hands in their pockets and never say a word about it.
