    A Connecticut Democrat who agrees

    I voted for Lamont today, and felt better about this decision than I ever did voting for a Democrat in a general election. Lieberman undermines the party on the most critical issues our country faces, and if a Bush cheerleader should win a Democratic primary, then I'm afraid that I'll have to withdraw from the party. I may even vote Republican in November. While I disagree with almost every aspect of the Republican platform, at least they seem to stand for something, and they do not pretend to be on my side.
