A federal investigation has concluded that U.S. Sen. Joseph Lieberman's 2006 re-election campaign was to blame for the crash of its Web site the day before Connecticut's heated Aug. 8 Democratic primary.

The FBI office in New Haven found no evidence supporting the Lieberman campaign's allegations that supporters of primary challenger Ned Lamont of Greenwich were to blame for the Web site crash.

Lieberman, who was fighting for his political life against the anti-Iraq war candidate Lamont, implied that joe2006.com was hacked by Lamont supporters.

"The server that hosted the joe2006.com Web site failed because it was overutilized and misconfigured. There was no evidence of (an) attack," according to the e-mail.

2. That's pathetic.

I still can't believe that bozo actually won. It was the bozo vote, of course, that put nim over. All the party-switching Puggies.

3. I was thinking this morning

about how glad I am that LIEberman has decided to hold hands with McCain. If there's one thing we know it's how poisonous having yourself associated with that scumbag can be. Just ask Al Gore....

4. I don't even want to think about that. It would make me cry.

God, that sure takes one back to a different world, doesn't it? In those days I was less than 100% behind Gore because he seemed to DLC-ish, afraid to expose his true opinions for fear of rejection from the right (ergo Lieberman). Early on. I thought Bradley was a better choice, but Rove would have smeared him on the walls like--uh--oatmeal.
