Howard Dean, the former Democratic national chairman, blamed Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman today for the failure of the U.S. Senate to open Medicare to younger Americans as part of the health-care reform act passed by Congress.

"Remember who sold you out on health care," Dean told the Connecticut AFL-CIO at its biennial political convention in Hartford. "We're not going to forget in 2012."

"No, we're not," someone yelled from the crowd.

Howard Dean has remained politically active since stepping down as Democratic chairman. He said he working to elect progressive Democrats to congress.

He put in a plug today for Dan Malloy, who beat Lamont in last week's Democratic primary for governor.
