Lieberman essentially admits defeat and shows disrespect for the democratic party.

The desperate acts and tricks of Lieberman today show that he has been already defeated in the primary and he knows it. If he has some self-respect he should withdraw from the race altogether. It will look better for him than being defeated twice (in the primary and the general election). But he apparently does not get it. Democrats simply dont like him and want him out. No matter what desperate actions he chooses to take, he will lose.

The BBC has also a story on Lieberman and the incoming senator of Connecticut Ned Lamont.
