2. fair? maybe not. inevitable. of course
Edited on Wed Sep-06-06 10:25 AM by onenote
Lamont isn't a one-note Johnny, but face it, the reason he got the nomination was because of his position on the war, more than any other issue and indeed more than all the other issues combined. So its going to stick with him as a label, even though it is not the only issue he cares about.

on edit: since he defeated Lieberman based in the primary largely on their different views of the war, and since Lieberman still appears to be Lamont's only credible opposition (credible in the sense of having any chance of winning), its not surprising that the general election campaign is viewed in the media as just a continuation of the primary.
