Joe’s Bear Bombs

The reviews are in: U.S. Sen. Joe Lieberman’s cartoon attack ad against “bears” Ned Lamont and Lowell Weicker is a bonafide bomb. In fact, Lamont’s team hustled the ad onto youtube.com so more people could see it. “Worst ad ever?” asks conservative blogger Andrew Sullivan. Here’s what mainstream Democratic blogger Joshua Marshall, who hasn’t taken sides in the race, had to say on Talking Points Memo: “I’m not sure I even have the heart to ask my Lieberman pals what’s up with this. Lieberman’s trying to show CT Dems he’s not out of touch but he’s showing them he’s out of his mind.” Click here and scroll to the bottom to see what Independent readers said, and add your own comments.
