Boxer to Joe: Get Out!
Senator Barbara Boxer of California put in a call to Joe Lieberman last night, and left a voicemail to let him know that she “would be supporting Mr. Lamont and to express her hope that Senator Lieberman would not run as an independent,” according to spokesperson Natalie Ravitz.
She also called the “Lamont campaign to offer her congratulations and support in the general election,” according to Ravitz.
Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
