This story is going to dominate the media, and Joe can spin this hard.
Of course is makes sense that this is a non-story to us. But the media and general public have an infinite capacity to swallow bullshit.
Oh, how indignant we'll be in 10 months when Senator Lieberman is fully behind the war with Iran and we discover the DoS attack came from the bowel's of the RNC.
But this story can be killed, right now if Ned Lamont just shuts his website off in a sign of solidarity with Joe Lieberman.

Update 2
Listen, I want nothing more than to see Joe Lieberman gargle on his old-man mucus while conceding this race to Ned Lamont
NedLamont.com isn't going to change voters minds in these final hours, but HardBall and the corporate media can.
Not only that, Joe is going to use this as an excuse in his independant run.
There's no better strategy to rip this excuse from his hands and turn this story into a huge boost for Ned.
This isn't capitulation, this is taking Joe's stick away from him and beating him to a pulp with it.
More on the flip..
it's very possible joe2006.com is being attacked.
the billing message could've just been the default "offline" message. i work in it, and that's what a website looks like when an it staff if floundering to get it back online.
reporters should do their jobs, but, if you've been in america for the last ten years you should know they won't.
turning off ned's site won't cost him many votes, but will play really well in the media while this story is going to play poorly for the rest of the night.
nedlamont.com can stay up with a message expressing concern for joe's site, and show extremely good sportsmanship while joe does not. it will be the ultimate jujitsu for what is an ugly, last ditch attack
