   Former Clinton White House aide [1]Lanny Davis:

     I do not blame Joe Lieberman's political difficulties on the
     liberal blogosphere. Most Connecticut Democrats voting for Mr.
     Lamont are genuinely outraged at President Bush for his Iraq War
     policies. They are entitled to express that outrage by voting for
     him and against Sen. Lieberman on that basis alone, although Sen.
     Lieberman's record as a progressive Democrat and his opposition to
     President Bush not only on most domestic issues but also on the
     conduct of the war cannot be disputed--despite egregiously
     distortive ads paid for by Mr. Lamont with $4 million of his own
     money.

     Moreover, the support he gets from these haters should not be
     attributed to Mr. Lamont--nor should he be blamed for their
     extremism, bigotry and intolerance. But he ought to denounce them.
     He hasn't as yet.

   I predict he never will.

   Davis is far too kind.
