ct: will weicker run?
A most interesting tidbit from Connecticut: it seems that Lowell Weicker may challenge Joe Lieberman for his old Senate seat. Weicker would run as an independent.
Given that Lieberman defeated Weicker (then a Republican - a fiscally conservative, socially liberal one) by tacking to the right, it’s definitely an interesting development. Weicker remains quite liberal: he was against the war in Iraq from the beginning, a stark contrast to Lieberman’s unrelenting pro-war stance.
Could be interesting - and fun to watch.
