In Connecticut, Senator Joseph Lieberman and the millionaire TV executive Ned Lamont have entered their last full day of campaigning before Tuesday’s Democratic primary. On Sunday Lieberman tried to distance himself from President Bush. He said he was the only Democrat in America to twice run against Bush in a national election. Lamont has campaigned as an anti-war candidate but he has openly joined Lieberman in supporting Israel’s attacks on Lebanon. Lamont said “when Israel’s security is threatened, the United States must unambiguously stand with our ally to be sure that it is safe and secure.” One recent poll showed Lamont leading Lieberman by 13 percentage points.
