...Weicker-Moffett match-up is the long-awaited title fight between two of Connecticut's best-known politicians. Even before Weicker, 51, came to national prominence as a member of the Senate Watergate committee, he was building a reputation as a social liberal and iconoclast. Lately he has been following a more conventional Republican line, consistently supporting President Reagan on economic, military and even environmental policy.
