Do you think the Bush administration waited until after Joe Lieberman lost in his Connecticut primary on Tuesday to authorize the foiling of the terrorists’ plot to blow up the airplanes? Waiting to do so would have given anti-war candidate (and ultimate victor) Ned Lamont the advantage, allowed Lieberman to go Independent, and hopefully (for Republicans) in the final results (after November) reduce the Democrats’ number in the Senate by one.
If it’s not there already, watch for this theory to emerge on a liberal blog somewhere.
