Suppose Lamont defeated Lieberman in the primary just like it happened, and Joe runs as an Independent after he loses. 

But, Jodi Rell decides she's going to run for the senate instead of the governorship.  So, who wins?

Ned Lamont (D) v. Jodi Rell (R) v. Joe Lieberman (CFL)

Rell - 53%
Lamont - 32%
Lieberman - 15%

Lieberman loses the GOP base to the highly credible Jodi Rell and is left with his fraction of the Democratic base. Rell's cross over support and high approval ratings carry her to an easy election.

It would be a great race but I'd say:

Lamont (D) 38%
Rell (R) 32%
Lieberman (CFL) 30%

My best guess is Lamont keeps the base he currently has bascially in tact and that's enough to win as Rell and Lieberman split the moderate and conservative base.

Lamont ~40%
Rell ~30%
Lieberman ~30%

Rell. Though i wouldn't be shocked if Lamont won. Joe would be done.

Joe would probably drop out.

You're right, as long as he leads, he feels he can just cruise. I think interesting stuff would happen if he started trailing in a poll.

No he wouldn't.  He is out for himself and doesn't care about anything else.  If he was running against God himself he would sling mud talk trash and keep the campaign rolling.
