Peter Schiff, the Darien resident and CEO of Euro Pacific Capitol, is all over the web with mounting support calling him into political service. Peter was a previous speaker at the Connecticut Libertarian Party, and a regular commentator on several national news programs.
Schiff is often referred to as the man who was later determined to have been right in his economic predictions. There is no doubt that he has developed an impressive and loyal following. Personally I would find it great to see Lieberman a party outcast face another Independent like Peter Schiff in the 2010 Senate race.
Recently I contacted his office to see if the Milford Independent party could offer their services since he would be campaigning in our districts. Mike Telesca our state Independent Party chairman said he thought Schiff would "make a better candidate for Connecticut Governor" and asked me to make the offer. When I called his Euro Pacific Capitol office and told his receptionist the nature of my call, she indicated he was out of town and was put through to his brother instead. The details of which happened next are currently confidential, however I will say that support is building for Peter's push to run for the Senate. Peter Schiff has not formally announced he will run but money and people are organizing to get him to do so hopefully we will hear the magic words that he will run.
Peter is truly a dynamic individual who has a keen insight on world affairs, sound economic policy, and a strong bond with our country to continue to fight for what we believe in. Even if Peter opts out of the Senate race he will still continue on to the airways where he will be a formidable force in challenging the flawed views of misguided economists.

Update 6/17/09
Andrew Schiff and I made contact today and Peter Schiff is more interested in challenging Chris Dodd than Joe Lieberman. Andrew also mentioned that he is not ruling out a Republican endorsement but will announce his intentions soon.
Also Schiffs supporters have struck a nerve with angry liberals who wrote this recent Hit Piece about Peter Schiff. Perhaps they have not yet seen this video by Aaron Russo.
