I am disgusted that Shays and Lieberman have been re-elected. It leave a vile taste of bile in the back of my throat.
Lieberman is a liar, who has put his own personal interests in front of the state of the Connecticut, and in front of the party he claims he still wants to be part of, that I cannot ever accept as he is a tried and true Democrat. I just wonder how long until he bolts the Democratic caucus, time will tell.
Shays is a fine man, and a good legislator, but it was a time to send him home, and voters in this district have missed the mark.
Although it looks like the Dem's are making good gains in the both houses as of now, but it is just so frustrating.

One point of note on Lieberman: Republican voters elected him by abandoning their own party to vote for him. While I and approximately 40% of us recognize what you said about him to be true by voting for Ned Lamont, there are still enough Republicans in this state to steal the election.
Jeff, I have to disagree about Christopher Shays; he's actually a really decent politician with a moral compass (I know that's an oxymoron). He has a proven record and has a solid background.
Ned Lamont was really the anti-Joe and didn't have much else on his platform. The jury's still out on Joe; we'll have to see where his sympathies lies. He owes a lot to the Reps. in this state for electing him...
