The people of Connecticut must have slept through 2006. Buyer’s remorse is more compelling when the defects in the product weren’t glaringly obvious when one purchased.

Such a small amount that want a new Senator. One who has no loyalty or constancy in his ideology. How much time does he have to re-build his image for the gullible back home?

I hope he gets the boot. You never can trust this man again.

yes, and that 30% are the assclowns in fairfield county who have lost their cush trading jobs on wall street those in wethersfield who got their asses handed to them when the bottom fell out of the real estate market thanks to bush-leg-humpin’ lieberman and their disasterous financial free for all. i, on the other hand voted for ned lamont.

Zooey, of course it couldn’t be that easy and I doubt if the will is there anyway…….

I protest every time I hear his name though.

The Dems should never have allowed him to continue his Chairship.

Tiptoeing around issues like that so ‘you don’t look bad’ is not leadership. In fact, it projects fear of doing the right thing.

Grow some balls for the holidays, Dems. And pin them on Sloppy Joe.

CTers, there’s a thingy called a recall.
Please exercise it.

It is possible to recall a US Senator in 18 states. Unfortunately, CT is not one of them.

Fred,

I don’t think a Senator can be recalled. If I remember correctly, Senators are under Federal jurisdiction, not state jurisdiction.

If they wanted it badly enough they would be passing petitions. LIEberman could be recalled.

Whatever . . . you usually don’t get do-overs in elections that’s why you should try and do it right the first time. EVERYONE knew Lieberman was a loser, a turncoat, a GOP-lite, but they voted for him anyway. Thanks for nothing.

Why waste a do-over on a lowly Senator?

Hate to say it, but what did they expect when Lieberman ran as an independent ?

‘Regret’ is a dish best served as desert, an a very full stomach.

Don’t the “internets” reach all the way to CT yet?

Methinks not.

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I’d throw my shoe at him.
