They're hitting the ground running.
Lieberman is taking potshots at Lamont's money, while still being evasive about whether or not he'll run as an independent.
Meanwhile, John DeStefano appeared with his running mate to accept the endorsement of the AFL-CIO's executive board yesterday in Hartford. Dan Malloy, meanwhile, will be in West Hartford today.
So has the convention actually changed anything, in regards to the primary? Let's (informally and unscientifically) find out:
What else is going on?

Most ironic mailer ever! Great work.
(Actually, at least some of the votes in that last gubernatorial poll were inspired by both the Malloy and DeStefano campaigns. I can't say how many, but I got a couple of referrals coming off their internal webs, then from a ton of email... the current poll hasn't been too badly freeped, but there is some evidence of it)
Malloy will make a great Governor. I was a delegate for DeStefano But after the crappy manuevers he pulled on Blondin at the State Convention I don't think he could get ten votes in Litchfield County.
I feel betrayed and hurt that he promised Blondin the LG Spot and then picked that little weasel from West Hartford Slifka to be his running mate.
West Hartford(New Haven North)has several politicians who are nothing but opportunity grabbers It doesnt hurt to have Sullivan to help them move up the ladder.Their Town Chairman should resign as well and I am sure she too had a hand in getting Scotty too Hotty The Lt Governor's spot on Destefano's team.
Litchfield County gets screwed yet again by these big city politicos Well I know where my vote is going in August Not with DeStefano/Slifka thats for sure and if Malloy doesnt win the primary I may just not vote at all in November
Ugh!!! I keep messing up - it's too late to be posting!
Anyways, back to what I was posting:
Fedele was picked because he wouldn't overshadow Rell - she is already soft-spoken, she doesn't need someone like Tim Stewart stealing the limelight everytime he says something. The comment earlier about Fedele's fundraising potential is also an intriguing analysis.
Stewart's existing appeal (already declared CTGOP's "Municipal Rising Star" and he certainly has potential), were he picked for LTG, could have allowed him to position himself for a primary in 4 years - and an interesting primary that would be. Soft-spoken RINO vs. Rowland-style tough guy.
