Ned Lamont Comes to Yale (Again)
Yale has already hosted Ned Lamont once; he spoke when he was running for Senate under the Democratic ticket, trying to oust now Independent Joe Lieberman from a seat he had held for the Dems for 18 years. Now Lamont is back, as a (semi) acknowledged failure and the guest speaker of the Yale Political Union's first debate of the Spring term.
This Wednesday he will open the debate by speaking in favor of his own, exceptionally obnoxious resolution, "Resolved, That Congress should Force President Bush to Withdraw from Iraq." I will cover the debate from the floor -- look for the piece in our features section later this week.
