Want to see everything you need to know about how hopelessly out of touch Sen. Joe Lieberman is with the next generation of voters? Check out his campaign website, then check out the site of challenger Ned Lamont:

  • Immediately after the candidates’ Thursday night debate, Lamont’s site was jam-packed with video highlights, media reactions, blogger coverage and fact-checked responses to Lieberman’s charges. Lieberman’s site, however, barely even mentions the debates; there’s nary a blog; and his “news” page hasn’t been updated since Monday. (Update: 12 hours after the debate, the campaign posted a few paragraphs–but that’s it.) It’s such a tone-deaf approach you have to wonder who’s minding the shop over there.
  • Not to belabor the point, but Lieberman’s (thanks, nit picker) Lamont’s team has so fully embraced its netizens that they’re not even shy about prominently linking to a blog called My Left Nutmeg.
  • Full coverage of the debate
  • Truthdig’s interview with Lamont
    •  Wait, before you go…
