This quote, made in the context of the Lamont-Lieberman Connecticut Senate race, tells you everything you need to know about the degree to which special interests have their hooks into Lieberman.

The good news, however, is that the polls show that the public is recognizing the truth about Lieberman.


Sirotablog:

If ever you wanted to know what the Lieberman-Lamont race was really about, just read this quote from the Hartford Courant—it says it better than anyone else could.

“The Washington lawyers and lobbyists in those rooms will come back for Joe Lieberman. Who knows what Lamont would be like?” - Enron lobbyist and former Lieberman chief of staff Michael Lewan, at a fundraiser this week by Washington lobbyists for Joe Lieberman [Source: Hartford Courant, 8/4/06]
