More Endorsements for Lieberman
Entering the home stretch of the Connecticut primary race, Lieberman’s camp was glowing over receiving endorsements from the state’s major newspapers, with campaign manager Sean Smith sending out an email titled, “We Shut Them Out!!.”
If only the endorsements themselves were so exuberant. The Danbury News-Times, for example, made sure to mention that Lieberman “has spent so much time pursuing his national political ambitions that he sometimes gives the impression he has lost interest in Connecticut,” and that his “enthusiasm for the war, and his finger-in-the-eye criticism of those who disagree with him on the war, has angered and disappointed constituents – Democrats, Republicans and unaffiliated.”
