[...] Also, I hope now we can put aside the “crazies” talk about ppopular uprisings. Powerful, entrenched Senators don’t lose because of a few crazies. They lose because they are losers who have lost touch with the people. They no longer represent the people, only themselves. Anyone, regardless of party, who acts in their own self-interest rather than the nation’s best interests needs to go. Lieberman famously told Chris Matthews just yesterday that he did not act according to what the people wanted him to do, but only what he wanted to do. Old Joe felt he should follow himself and then pull the people in that direction regardless of what they wanted. [...]

Doubtful.
You're forgetting that the reason Liberman has been doing so well all this time is because of the number of Republicans that went cross-lines to vote for him.

Not gonna hapen with Lamont. And Lamont has already turned off what Sane Democrats are left. All he's got is the far left. That's not enough to win election.

Bithead-
This is something I was initally concerned about. But if you read the polls, you will see that there is almost no chance of this happening. In a 3-way race, the Republican often polls in the teens. The reality is that his far-left views on the war are now shared by most people, especially in the Democratic stronghold of Connecticut. There is no question that either Lieberman or Lamont will take this race. And it seems increasingly likely that we will see Senator Lamont.

What happens after Liberman loses?

The Democrats lose the general election.

The reason's simple enough. Lamont may placate the far left nutjobs, but will be too far left for the general population of evena Democrat stronghold like Connecticut.

It's time to make Jane Hamsher, as well as Markos himself, Ned Lamont's running mates. It's what they are after all. Indeed, in the runup to November, it's going to be important for every Democratic politician who ever cozied up to these people to have every vicious and hateful thing they ever posted thrown in their faces. These "netroots" fascists are a genuine threat to one of our country's greatest and most important institutions: the Democratic Party. Time they be exposed.

A good analysis, I think. As an aside, it seems to me that an interesting question to ask right now is what effect the current goings-on in Lebanon/Israel is going to have on the Lieberman Election? As one of America's most prominent Jewish politicians, it seems to me that it must have some kind of effect, but I don't know enough about the Connecticuit electorate to make any kind of assessment - although it could be related to why he's falling behind in the polls.
