HARTFORD, Conn. -- As Democrats welcomed their newly minted nominee for Senate at a noisy rally Wednesday, the vanquished senator who's held that seat for nearly two decades quietly sat in a hotel room a few blocks away, surrounded only by a few key advisers.
Many of Sen. Joe Lieberman's strongest political allies have changed camps, celebrating Greenwich millionaire Ned Lamont's 10,000-vote primary victory instead of joining Lieberman's independent campaign for re-election.

But Lieberman, experts say, is firmly the driver's seat in Connecticut's three-way Senate race.

MICHAEL McCAFFERTY SAYS:

Joe Lieberman is an outstanding United States Senator. A great American Democrat in the traditions of John F. Kennedy,Lyndon Johnson and Bill Clinton.

Senator Lieberman is also a solid defender and friend of Israel.

It is my hope that Senator Lieberman is re-elected as an Independent to the US Senate.
