The loss last night was motivated by many factors. Jerome Armstrong's analysis on the Front Page right now, I think is the most right on about single issue organizations needing to blend into an effective electoral entity and the fact there was more than one issue at stake last night.
That said the overriding issue the drove Lieberman into the ground was his insistance on being overwhelmingly close to George Bush and supporting the failed policy in Iraq.
We have now a Peace Team made up of 30 Congressional Candidates dedicated to ending the senseless war in Iraq and seeking peace in the Middle East.
At the Peace Team Site you will find a petition for you to fill out with a message in your own words to send to your Senators and Representative on these issues.
As the Peace Team says for itself:
