Joseph Lieberman's Seat is Safe

Markos Moulitsas predicts that Lieberman will lose the Democratic primary.

Their political opinions were, not surprisingly, hard to mistake. With little doubt, the most unpopular Democrat around was probably Senator Joseph I. Lieberman of Connecticut, scorned for his frequent support of President Bush's policies. Mr. Lieberman is facing a primary challenge from Ned Lamont, a cable television executive, that should offer a pretty good test of the political impact of this world. Lamont T-shirts and buttons were in abundance.

"Lieberman is going to lose this one," Mr. Moulitsas said.

Given his record for political prognostication, Moulitsas condemnation should be greeted with relief in Connecticut.
