One of the most high profile national races right now is the Democratic Primary out in Connecticut between Joe Lieberman and challenger Ned Lamont. CSPAN will air a debate between the two tonight at 6 pm.
I wrote some of about this race last month and Gavin has commented on it as well.
I believe defeating Lieberman with a strong Progressive like Lamont would be one of the biggest victories for Democrats this year. I know Lieberman has a D behind his name, but it seems Lieberman does more to undermine the party's objectives. Every time a blue state Democrat like Lieberman votes with the Republicans, he gives cover to other Democrats to do so. Lieberman's corporate, pro-war agenda goes against the core Democratic values and makes it nearly impossible for Democrats to stand united with one single message.
This race is definitely one to watch the rest of this summer. Stay tuned.

Yo, there's a bunch of great Lieberman material on crooksandliars.com today. Several posts, some with video, some with quotes exposing his fact-less statements.
Here's my fav - some guy from CNN runs circles around Lieberman. Check it out!
