I'm concerned about a Lamont victory

Don't get me wrong.  As a Californian, I wish we had a serious challenger to Feinstein.  I did not vote for her in the primary, and will probably go third party in the general (it's supposed to be a landslide in her favor, anyway).

But from the polls I've seen, there is a very strong chance that Ned Lamont will be the Democratic nominee for Connecticut's Senate Seat.  And I think that's a great thing.

What I'm concerned about is Lieberman's chances in the general if he does run as an independent.

Rasmussen shows him winning as an independent by around 20%.  Not great news.

My concern is that Joe Lieberman has an excellent chance of being re-elected to his seat, whether he does it as the Democratic nominee or the Independent nominee.  I'm worried that he may feel even less beholden to Democratic victory if he wins his seat as an Independent in November.  What do you all think?
