As a CT citizen, I did NOT vote for LIEberman for a reason. He's a turn coat and we all knew he was a Republican in hiding. Now I hope those who wasted their votes on him will finally see. Power hungry Lieberman will go whichever way the power pulls him, he's out for himself period. I actually liked McCain until he went to bed w/ the religious nuts but this?? McCain is done now, what a poor choice, he's gone too far now w/this choice he may as well cash in his hopes for a Presidential anything.

McCain must be pretty desperate if this is the best he can do...

There's a way to deal with Warmonger Joe... strap him to a dummy nuke, claim it's targeted at Arabs, drop it over the desert and let him ride it down, whoopin' and hollerin' like Slim Pickens as Major Kong in "Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb".

He'd PAY for the ride...

Now GW Bush can attack McCain for his black babies and Jewish friends.

Kiss Bush's ring John. I love it when you genuflect.

Libercon ran away from Bush as fast he could, when he got his head handed to him in the Democratic primary. With the Republican canadate at less than 6%, a deal needed to be made. I have many friends from Connecticut who supported him for years, yet are still angry he did not give up his seat when he ran for VP in 2000, they view him him as a cheap opportunist who lacked real commitment to Gore’s campaign. I live in an adjoining moderate state and my republican In-laws will not support John McCain if he were the last Republican on Earth, they view Libercon as some kind of bug.

Libercon made a deal in Connecticut to get reelected and has been running to right ever since. He has been fun razing for Susan Collins R of Maine, a state in which Republicans are going to have a tough fight with little money. Democrats and Independents who voted for this self-serving hack have buyer’s remorse already.

AEI, (neocon central) believe that the data for the GOP is beyond gloomy, more than twice as many seats than the Democrats will be open in the Senate and moderate NE Republicans can be blown away in 08. With little or no cash on hand to defend theses seats. AEI forecast for the house is only slightly more optimistic, not to mention few well-funded talented presidential candidates.

Why are Libercon and McCain showing up at Christian Zionist events, the most radical angry fundamentalist groups to emerge out of Texas? They just about hate everyone except the Israelis and only the ones who will embrace their warped brand of Christianity after Armageddon, which is code for nuclear war in the Middle East even at the destruction of our own nation. McCain forgets that he is on tap pandering to these lunatics.

Call Harry Reid’s office, demand that Libercon lose his chairmanship of the HLS sub-committee, so fare his role has been a big hand holding exercise with Collins, who is actually to his left.

I like that photo...

Look like the two puppets in the balcony on the Muppets Show

Being the mouthpiece of Israel Lobby, Lieberman will be more comfortable with Republican than with his own camp. His true color shows....

Sweet justice that after Bill Clinton endorsed Jumping Joe, Joe bites his hand.

Joe's endorsement should swing the INDIE vote to McJohn in NH. The resultant SURGE could also garner him SC. This will put him in the driver's seat for the nomination. GO McJohn GO!

How did Ned Lamont manage to lose? What were the voters of Connecticut thinking? What on earth is this man is doing in the Senate?

I hope that Lieberman has resigned himself to the fact that this is his last term in office. If voters in CT could recall Lieberman and reverse his election victory, they would in a landslide.
