Disclosure: I worked for the Lamont campaign doing web design and production and some writing for the official blog (from 9/5/06 to 11/07/06).

Sunday Morning Round-Up
- Catch Lamont campaign manager Tom Swan and Lieberman campaign manager Sean "Low-Information Voter Strategy" Smith on Fox 61's "Beyond the Headlines" this morning. (YouTube - hat tip Spazeboy.)
- Mark Pazniokas writes about the incredibly damaging ripple effect Lieberman bolting from the primary would have on the party. Of course, smilin' Joe doesn't care about hurting downticket races:
"I'm not doing anything about it," Lieberman said Friday after greeting diners at the Olympia Diner in Newington. "I'm going forward to an Aug. 8 primary with a lot of confidence."
So, one reporter asked as Lieberman moved toward his car, does that mean he is he ruling out bypassing the primary?
Lieberman turned. He smiled, paused briefly, and said, "No." - More evidence of the damage Lieberman is doing to downticket Democrats from Ray Hackett in the Norwich Bulletin.
- Kevin Rennie thinks the problem with Lieberman's faltering campaign is that he's not being negative enough. But no amount of negative attack ads is going to change the excitement even he sees (using a questionable metaphor) emanating from the Lamont campaign:
The Lamont campaign is busier than the Arizona border on a moonless night. Volunteers are pouring in. The campaign now boasts six offices across the state and is looking for space in three more Democratic towns. The field offices are buzzing with 20 three-hour shifts of volunteers calling Democratic voters.
