The “Daily Show” opened Wednesday with coverage of Ned Lamont?s victory over the man Jon Stewart referred to as ?Joe Loserman.?

There was a game, and you lost.? The host later brought on ?senior political analyst? Samantha Bee, who said, ?Well Jon, he?s no quitter. In fact, sources in his campaign tell me if he loses again in November, he?ll start his own Senate.?
