Aides to United States Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) are backing away from reports earlier today indicating that the Senator offered to campaign for Joe Lieberman (D-CT) challenger Ned Lamont, but indicate that such support is possible, RAW STORY has learned.
"Senator Boxer offered her support for
in the general election," an aide to the Senator told RAW STORY. "Beyond that, I can't say for certain."
Reports surfaced earlier this morning that Boxer had called Lamont to contratulate him, and--beyond what other well-wishers offered--said that she would visit Connecticut to campaign for the anti-war candidate.
The claims caused a stir, as Boxer and Lieberman have reportedly strong ties.
