The loneliest man in America?

Well, maybe not. After all, enough Connecticut Republicans seemed to like Republican State Rep. Alan Schlesinger enough to make him their choice for the US Senate in the recent primary. Out of town, though, Mr. Schlesinger must wonder where his friends went. First GOP chair Ken Mehlman pointedly rejected an endorsement of the people's choice in Connecticut, and now it's the Preznit hisself, Republican numero uno...

White House Press Secretary Tony Snow said this morning that President Bush will not endorse Connecticut U.S. Senate candidate Alan Schlesinger (R) over Sen. Joe Lieberman even though he's the Republican nominee.

Joe Lieberman, on the other hand, seems to be picking up Republican endorsements quite handily, including Mike McGavick right here in the upper left.

I think the notion that Joe will caucus with the Democrats if he should win in November is an increasingly uncertain one.
