OK, so maybe I’m being a worry wart about the long term impact of the Lieberman loss. Please continue giving your excellent feedback.

I’ve always had my reservations about whether or not dumping Lieberman was a good long term strategy, but this interview of Kos and posts by other bloggers distancing themselves from this race made me even more nervous. The netroots was working very hard to say that they had little to do with the Lamont candidancy. Next stop, I’m over to Kos to see what’s he’s saying today.

This Lamont victory is being spun, rightly or wrongly, as a victory for the netroots. See this excellent article by Noam Scheiber and post by Garance Franke-Ruta.

UPDATE: Kos is a happy, happy blogger today. Wow, this is fun stuff.

UPDATE2: Wow. You’ve got to read the Plank. Start here and flip around. Back to being a worry wart. Democrats v. Democrats, Kos v. the New Republic is bad for business.
