Loverboy Goes Independent

After losing the Democratic primary to Ned Lamont, Senator Joseph Lieberman (D/R/Indep-CT) filed the paperwork necessary to run as an independent.

Mike's had some good posts on this, so I'll leave it to him to write something more if he's so inclined. In the meantime, I salute Sen. Lieberman and his courageous decision to defend the sacred principle of incumbency. (And to The Onion for their fearless reporting on the issue.)

I'm always a little suspicious of the accuracy of campaign prediction maps, but the New York Times has a shiny map of safe and disputed districts for the Nov. elections. It's fun to play with.
