A commenter on my recent Lieberman post says:
Shouldn’t the veto-proof majority in the CT legislature pass a law for direct election of Senators who resign, instead of Lieberman giving the GOP an appointment by Gov Rell between now and 2009?
An excellent suggestion. One would think that by now even Jim Amann, who actually thinks he has a chance to be governor, would want to head off such an event. But this is Connecticut, and we’re talking about Democrats. No doubt there are some who will still carry water for Lieberman, even though he has repeatedly demonstrated his contempt for them and his party. Still, it’s something worth bringing up with our state representatives and Senators, which I intend to do.
