70% of Republicans voted for Lieberman something I will never understand.
Lieberman supported Prez on Iraq war & talked against slashing the Prez during war time. Connecticut is dominated by dems in party affliation. Republican winning chance was 0%.
Lamont was certainly not acceptable. At least in Connecticut the people had the good sense to do the right thing.
They didn't have the death wish some other repubs have.
1) He wasn't Lamont
2) The Republican was a non-entity
3) He supports fighting the war on (Jihadi) terror, including in Iraq, and supports the state of Israel
I think that about sums it up.
Oh, and as a bonus he will give the Dhimmicrats the heebee jeebees as they worry about him the way Republicans have had to worry about McLame, Hagel, Graham and crew.
It couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of folks...
