Instead, it was probably Lieberman’s camp itself that brought down a misconfigured site with overuse. The senator’s campaign had accused its opponents and requested investigation. A Lieberman spokesman told the New York Times that the campaign made the accusations based on its site administrator’s evaluation of the crash, but offered no apologies. Meanwhile, Lamont said the senator should say he's sorry. “The Lieberman campaign unfairly attacked an awful lot of good people, starting with our campaign,” he told the Times.
