Clueless Joe

Lieberman's brazen nonconcession was the sad final move of a politician who can't see he's on the wrong side of history.

    Well said.

    I have nothing to add except that Lieberman's ungracious, self-serving, divisive "concession" showed him to be a much smaller man than I thought. His invitation to those of us who live outside CT to get involved in the general campaign had, I'm sure, at least one unintended result. There is now a little more money in Ned Lamont's campaign coffers courtesy of this Seattlite.
