New Blog Rumblings In Connecticut
The hiring of blog experts is all the rage in politics these days, and netroots favorite Ned Lamont, the Democratic Senate candidate in Connecticut, has hired another one.
The evidence surfaced discreetly in a disclosure by David Sirota at The Huffington Post and cross-posted at Sirota's own blog. The disclosure came at the bottom of a post arguing that "something has gone horribly, horribly wrong over at the re-election campaign of Sen. Joe Lieberman," whom Lamont defeated in the Aug. 8 Democratic primary.
"I have long been a volunteer supporter of Ned Lamont's candidacy and written extensively about the race," Sirota said in the disclosure. "As of Labor Day, I am officially working with the Lamont for Senate campaign on research. The writing on this blog is my own and not the official work I do for the Lamont campaign."
Lieberman's campaign, meanwhile, issued a press release about its forthcoming Web redesign. Election Central at TPM Cafe reports that the site will feature a new candidate blog.
