Spitzer Gives Over $10,000 to Lieberman

The Journal Inquirer has a lengthy article about the many large donations received by Senator Lieberman in his successful reelection campaign. Not only do the figures show that Lieberman was in a "New York State of Mind" but they also illustrate that the cold treatment Senator Lieberman received here at home by his own party did not exist elsewhere. For example, while Lieberman's own Attorney General (and successor in that office) Richard Blumenthal backed Lamont, NY's Attorney General, Governor-elect, and all-around rising star Eliot Spitzer donated over $10,000 to Sen. Lieberman. (Mayor Bloomberg also donated over $10,000 to Lieberman, raised money for him and even campaigned for him in Connecticut.
