Poll question: What would you do if YOU were Joe Lieberman?
Advertisements [?]
Lieberman disgusts me more and more, but I wonder if it's easier said than done when it comes to actually packing your bags and moving on.

So, if you were Lieberman...and your job was on the line...and the polls told you that you could keep your Senate seat in CT if you ran as an Independent in a 3 way race.....

Would you take one for the party and give up your Senate seat to Lamont, or worse yet to a repuke, even though you know you could have a great chance of winning a 3 way race as an Independent?

Would you feel obligated to retain that Senate seat that the polls are telling you could be yours in a 3 way race as long as you run?

Would you feel like you let yourself and your family down by NOT running in a 3 way race that you would stand a good chance of winning? Would it make yourself feel like a quitter?

If your career was on the line like his is, would you do whatever it takes to keep it going....like what Lieberman is doing now?

To answer my own question, I know for a fact that if the majority of people who originally hired me let me know that they didn't want me anymore, I'd move on and take up another career. I think Joe should, too, but then again, I'm not him and it ain't really happening to me.

How about you? If you were in his shoes, would you move on or would you fight for your job?
