#1 Don't you worry about the republican. For just staying in the race, in case Lieberman keels over dead or something, he will have gotten his ticket punched big time.

That is, the party will owe him plenty payback in the future for "taking one for the team", and campaigning against Lamont, and not Lieberman.

#2 Not sure I agree with that.

Loyalty goes both ways.

#3 Why would anyone ever vote Republican in CT, after this?

I wouldn't.

Lieberman may not be devoted to US military failure like Lammont, but he is devoted to US economic failure. I guess that's OK with the White House.

#4 Conn republicans failed to pick a good candidate to run against Lieberman, but then in the blue states, it's usually a waste of money for a conservative to run for office, so there is not a great choice of runners to pick from.

Yeah, but so is Bush.
