I made a brief comment with this analysis yesterday, but when I read David Sirota's frankly delusional description of how the various possible outcomes of the Connecticut Democratic Senatorial Primary will reverberate in the halls of power, I felt that SOMEBODY here should splash a little realistic cold water on the growing gleeful self-importance that is flying around Ned Lamont's ascendency.
Now, Sirota's column is tongue-in-cheek. But it's clear that at root, he believes his premise: that Lieberman losing in CT will rattle the Beltway insiders to their cores.
To which I say, ballocks. Get real, ladies and gentlemen. Lieberman's fall is just the fall of a politician who acted like an idiot. More below the fold.
