Lieberman | Blog report from Lieberman's concession

Guest contributor (a.k.a. BrendanLoy.com Washington Correspondent) Dane Lindberg files a report from Arlington, VA, complete (as you can see) with photographs. Excerpt:

At 8:00 PM, there were a few supporters at the beginning of the event, standing around and talking in both the ballroom and the hallway outside. The room was much smaller than it appears on television. … There were a significant number of reporters walking around, asking people for comments before anything really happened.

As the evening continued, the room filled up. Most people were standing around talking and waiting instead of watching one of the two televisions in the room. Most of the people stayed upbeat and happy; however, the crowd also accepted the likelihood that this was probably the end of Lieberman’s campaign. …

Here is that cute kid that they showed on CNN just moments before I took this picture. She was riding around on her father’s shoulders all evening, and he was trying to teach her about the candidates (she kept pointing to Dean’s name on TV screen and saying “Lieberman”).

Heh. Possibly the only person in America confused about the differences between Dean and Lieberman. :) Here is Dane’s whole report.
