25. They are perfectly entitled to run...
There's nothing at all that prevents someone who loses a primary from running in the general. Nothing. If he want's to run in the general, he's perfectly entitled to. And if he wins the general, well, that's the will of the CT voters.

My problem isn't with Joe, it's with so-called Democrats who pretend that he's still a member of the party. He is not. The Democratic CT primary voters decided that he was not going to be the nominee, so he left the party. Some Democrats haven't gotten that memo.

IMO, if he wins, he can go back to the Hill and caucus with himself until he grows hair on his palms. When Jeffords switched, what kind of reception did the Republicant's give him? Was he promised his committee chairs? Did he keep his senority? Hell no! Why are we kow-towing to Holy Joe? Fuck him and the INDEPENDENT horse he rode in on.
