Showdown in Connecticut

Those of us who follow American politics will be glued to this story on Tuesday. A Lieberman loss may signal the beginning of the end of the centrist philosophy that has permeated the Democratic Party for the past fifteen years or so. What will it mean for 2008? More importantly for us, what will it mean for Canada, given that the political trends in our country seem to follow those of our southern neighbours? Will Canadian politics become more even more polarized and polarizing? Interesting questions, for sure.

I'll have more to say later in the week as the results of the primary are announced.
