the current Lieberman conspiracy theory is that he wins as an "independent", then accepts an offer to be Secretary of Defense, as Rumsfeld falls on his sword to atone for the Iraq fiasco. this then allows your Republican governor to appointment a Republican to his vacant seat, officially putting it back in GOP hands. sound plausible?
