It's Tuesday. Here's an Open Thread.

Guess What? A Leftist Is Bashing Lieberman! [John Podhoretz]
What's interesting isn't that Duncan Black, the blogger code-named Atrios, has an op-ed in the L.A. Times that strings together every already-exhausting cliche about how evil Joe Lieberman is. What's interesting is that Atrios can evidently put together a sequence of words longer than "It's Tuesday. Here's an Open Thread."

As you yourself suggest,

There's bound to be an anti-anti-Lieberman backlash in Connecticut, especially with the anti-Joe rhetoric already heating up to psychotic levels in Kosland in the wake of what I gather was a pretty resounding victory by the incumbent in last night's debate. Whether it happens in time for Lieberman to wipe Lamont out in the primary or takes place closer to the election with Lieberman running as an independent, Lieberman will be the beneficiary of the sense that he has been unfairly caricatured.

Bet five bucks with somebody on it. Not with me. I don't bet.

...it's all quite easy to explain: Atrios is anti-anti-anti-Lieberman and stringing together all those antis really requires and open thread or two every so often.
