WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Reports of strong support within John McCain's presidential campaign for Independent Democratic Sen. Joseph Lieberman as the Republican candidate for vice president are not a fairy tale. Influential McCain backers, plus McCain himself, would pick the pro-choice liberal from Connecticut if they thought they could get away with it.

But they can't get away with it -- and this has been made clear to McCain by none other than Joe Lieberman himself.

Lieberman surely doesn't know that much about Republican politics, but he has close Republican friends. One of them prevailed on Lieberman to tell McCain that a McCain-Lieberman ticket would be a disaster for all concerned, and especially for the GOP.

McCain and:

A. Baby Brother, aka, Jeb
B. Condoleezza
C. Gingrich
D. Alan Keyes


I would think any of the above would favor Obama/Bide­n.......

[huffposeur]

congratulations on fantasizing about four people who aren't even in the realm of consideration.

[TXfemmom]

I agree. All of those people are failures and fools.

[who38]

Don't count Jeb out; Babs hasn't.

[who38]

Jeb is supposedly the smartest of the Bush clan. Don't think he would want to be a part of this. Of course, Cheney could always take McCain duck hunting, and Mac would be dumb enough to go/

[usingmybrain]

So I guess his brain tumor he had to get out of jail for his hit and run just dried up and went away huh? Just in time for the election coverage. Wow, what a lucky guy! Lying D-bag.

[leftwingnuts]

Alberto Gonzalez for VP... or maybe Harriet Myers...or maybe Brownie?

Charlie Crist is too busy banging his bride...HA­HAHAHAHA

[Agnim]

Charlie Crist's 'bride' is just for show! lol
Females is not Charlie's preference. lol

[AdV2k1]

PLEASE PICK HIM MCCAIN, that will be my Christmas present Mccain picks Lieberman as his VP.

The RNC will HATE HIM FOR IT, it might attract some independents but the hardline conservatives will dump mccain and this election will be landslide for Obama.

[jennbeez]

A Lieberman pick would also mobilize the Hillary-luvers who were flirting with the idea of casting a spite vote for McCain into giving it up for OBAMA.

Yeah, pick Lieberman!!!

[OhComeOnNow]

Is there some way we can convince Novak he needs to stay retired?????

[flydoghead]

Don't worry Satan is going to bring him home for his reward soon.

[1stThron]

Barry picked a windbag in hopes his vacuous suit would not deflate and now McCain wants to pick a liberal so his rise in the polls will deflate. Clinton brought pornography to the Oval Office, these two candidates will be bringing a tragic comedy to the Oval Office.

[ObamAtomic]

So,,,Buschey is the most corrupted administration of all times.
So,,,a tragic comedy to the Oval Office,is the one now ,,Buschey.­.Please...

[Darsan54]

please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please
let McCain pick Lieberman. It would be so much fun to watch Biden slap both of them around.

[ObamAtomic]

McPow got only three choices,,,­Palankey,M­itten,and Lie-Rat,
Any one of them Are *Doom* against Joe Biden.

[who38]

How do you think Biden would handle Patreaus?

[luvienne]

Hillary is available.­.

[bikerdude]

Luvienne, please, please shut up! Senator Clinton is out of the picture. Find someone else to hate. Perhaps someone from the failed Bush administration or your presidential candidate, John McCain?

[goldnchyl]

here, here!

[V4Vigilance]

"All his groundbreaking election analysis..­."

The only "groundbreaking" that should associated with anything written by Traitor Bob is digging the hole that it will be buried in!

[freshpavement]

Why not Cheney?

[ObamAtomic]

Chinay on Drag!

[kathomas1]

Actually, as a Dem I rather see Romney as VP. That would guarantee a Dem victory.

Now Tom Ridge would pose a tough matchup and will defintely make PA a true tossup state. The conservative base will be upset due to Ridge being pro-choice, but his military/national security credentials will bring them on board to the McCain/Ridge ticket.

[aberforth]

Is this the entire article? What a disappoint­ment--just drop a bomb on people and get out. What did Lieberman say to McCain? What are the ideas that he "likely" shared with McCain? Hello?

[jerryfromcalifornia]

THAT A-H ONLY DEALS IN TALKING POINTS....­.....I GUESS HE NO LONGER GETS THEM FROM THE WHITE HOUSE.....­..BUSHIES ARE ON VACATION FOR A CHANGE.

[who38]

Ideas? These men have ideas? They only have strategies. Get a life.

[erichitchmo]

I keep thinking McCain will go with Meg Whitman. You know how he likes those billionaire ladies.

[ObamAtomic]

Dark horse in any case that what's Meg Whitman position will be.
McCain is not a favorite by the Party,it will be harder to fill the VP position
that is Meg Whitman came to place,compromise to all involved .

[DogTown]

Lieberman is a disaster where ever he goes or what ever party he wants to belong to.

[arugulaeater4obama]

I think that last line was supposed to read:

"...a McCain-Lieberman ticket would be a disaster for all concerned except the Democrats, who upon hearing about it would immediately fall down, pounding their fists on the ground in an uncontrollable fit of joyous, hysterical laughter."

[MissKaren]

It would lbe catnip to us for McCain to name Lieberman his VP choice. You would have to get to the polls at 6 in the morning just to keep from snaking around the block behind Democrats racing to vote for Obama.

[Darsan54]

Maybe it would get him out of his Senate seat. If anyone needs to be impeached for lying to the electorate, it's Lieberman.

[who38]

I hope that DiFi, Boxer, Nancy, and Harry are in that group. Somehow, I think that they are not.
