Digby: Moderation In The Pursuit Of Ego Is No Virtue

Neil the Ethical Werewolf, subbing over a Ezra's place yesterday, made some excellent points about the Lieberman challenge:

Criticizing "extremists" in your party and making opponents of the war look like unpatriotic radicals does nothing to help Claire McCaskill and Harold Ford win their Senate races. By painting a picture of unpatriotic extreme antiwar Democrats, Lieberman damages the party's brand and hurts Democrats everywhere.
