Politics: Primary Results

It seems Joementum wasn't enough to counter Nedrenaline. Lieberman lost in what will go down as a historic victory for Netroots and the leftwing blogosphere. Lieberman is going to run as an Independent in the general election. When I saw him on Good Morning America this morning, he was still calling himself a Democrat. Given his close loss to Lamont and continued ties to the Democratic Party, he'll probably win the general election and then switch parties from Independent back to Democrat. And he'll prove that netroots and the leftwing blogosphere are still over-rated.

On the other hand the far left didn't win everything. Cynthia McKinney is out in her district in Georgia. Good riddance to bad politicians.
