No.
NO WAY, NO HOW! The Republicans have been trying to get Schlesinger to step aside and replace him with a more viable candidate, but he's refusing. The guy is plagued with scandal and many republicans won't vote for him. His current polling shows only about 13% if the election were held today in a three way race.
Another example of the GOP shooting itself in the foot.
"Anyone know about the Republican contender for this seat? I'm wondering if Lamont picks up the Dem vote and Joe picks up some of the Independents or Dems, is there a possibility for a Republican pickup here?"
The fact that none of us (including me) seem to even know his name indicates that he's not going to win.
Maybe he should withdraw and throw his support to Lieberman.
