Ezra Klein dives into the deep end of the Village pool:
Look at the Senate right now: If Democrats have 60 votes, it's because conservative activists kept running primary challengers against Arlen Specter. If they fall short, it's likely to be because liberal activists ran a primary challenge against Joe Lieberman.
Yep, ole Joe Lieberman was a down the line liberal Dem until the 2006 election. He was "with us on everything but the war." Ezra Klein -- now officially a Village idiot. See also Atrios ("[I]t'll be interesting to see how the Villagers will react. My guess is they'll portray [the NY-23 Teabaggers] as just folks exercising their patriotic duties, unlike those dirty f*cking hippie traitors who ran a primary against the greatest man in America, Joe Lieberman." (Emphasis mine.))
