Lieberman/Lamont

Well, today's the day then. Apparently the most recent poll shows Lieberman with a bounce and the linked article says he's optimistic (of course). The pro-Lamont blogs have been trying to dampen expectations a bit the past few days, partly to fight complacency and convince Lamont supporters that they need turn out in numbers, but also because I'm sure some of these bloggers know that Lieberman still has a very good chance of taking it all. And they don't want that result to be seen as a failure, since the movement that brought Lamont from zero to credible challenger has been pretty amazing, and that alone is a success for the movement that opposed the Iraq War and is tired of Lieberman's deference to Bush.
