    I couldnt be happier that Lieberman lost. For a long he has been an arrogant republican clone, caring more about himself than the party he falsely identified with.

    Joe Lieberman shows just how much he really cares about the party to which he, for years, claimed affiliation.

    He would rather thin-out the voters between himself and LaMont, ultimately sacrificing the Democrats foothold for a Republican contender, than support the Democratic party.

    This is not the behavior of a “Centrist Democrat,” This is the behavior of “Republicrat.”
