When the Democrat Convention was on,my wife said, "Come sit with me and watch this. I'll watch the Republican with you when they are on."
"Okay, I'll try", I replied.
I sat on the couch with her, but within a minute I had to leave.<>"sorry honey, I just can't do it. I have to go upstairs and puke."
She laughed,saying, At least you tried.....'
.
so I wondered if the DUmmies were torturing themselves by watching the RNC --- and they were.
I am sympathetic ... I somehow can relate to the rage they might be feeling, yet I enjoy watching them wretch and spit and squirm while Joe speaks to the GOP...

Yup. Don’t be surprised if Joe ends up in an “accident”. In any case, they’ll spend any money necessary to defeat him in his next election.

Hillary will protect Joe...after all, she has a vested interest in having Obama lose this election...I bet she’s already thinking about a Clinton/Lieberman ticket in 2012.

They tried last time, but he won as an Independent.
His endorsement of John McCain notwithstanding, he's still a pro-abortion democRAT who votes with his fellow democRATs most of the time.

Rove said Lieberman put dynamite under Obama’s platform and took him apart. Chris Wallace said the same thing.

After tonight, I’m proud that Joe Lieberman is the only Democrat I ever voted for.... but since Lowell Weicker was the opposing Republican, I guess it wasn’t a very surprising choice.
Well done, Joe!

I think Joe’s done. He may accept a position in the McCain administration, but I’ll bet he retires after this term.

Spend money to defeat him in the next election? Remember that they ran an anti-war guy against him in the primary in 2006, and Ned Lamont won that primary against Lieberman. Joe ran as an independent to keep his Senate seat.
The Dems. needed his vote to retain control of the Senate, but after the Nov. election, the Dems. may not need his vote any longer. Stay tuned on that one.
There has been bad blood building with Dems. and Lieberman, so maybe Lieberman just doesn’t give a %*%* any more.

It's hard to make comparisons, but imagine Dan Quayle showing up at the 1996 Democrat convention endorsing Clinton, or Jack Kemp endorsing John Kerry in 2004?

I think he is sick and tired of the anti-americanism that his party has embraced. He is going to join McCain's cabinet or retire after his term... maybe sooner, if BHO wins.
BTW, I love it that he used McCain's middle initial. Brings attention back to Barak HUSSEIN Obama. :-)

No, I truly believe that he believes in McCain. Very courageous; very honorable.

Joe might have just killed the de-moKKKer-rat party.

I could barely hear him speak over the sound of long knives being unsheathed.

Lieberman has been a hawk on the WOT since the first tower hit the ground if not earlier. National security and the specific threat Islamic terror represents are the kind of issues that galvanize sane men and trump other concerns. Harry Truman, JFK, Scoop Jackson, Sam Nunn...the Dems haven’t always been Rats.

Joe is a socialist democrat, and he and I will never agree on those politics; he is, I believe, right on the war, and I respect his courage in bucking his party that undermined him most foully (and he sure showed them a thing or two in ‘06).
I sent him a hundred bucks in 2006 because:
1) Pataki and the national party left no republican infrastructure in my home state, New York. Does anyone remember the name of the guy that ran against Clinton in ‘06? Me neither. I had no one to donate to within my state and party.
2)I couldn’t stand the little snot-nosed weasel the dems in Connecticut were trying to torpedo Joe with in the primary.
He’s an old-schooler, a gentleman, honorable, and was good enough for Buckley.

He may accept a position in the McCain administration, but I’ll bet he retires after this term.
The only leverage Lieberman has had in the Democrat party for the past two years is the fact that in a 50/50 Senate he can turn the majority over to the Republicans anytime the wants. If the Democrats pick up a single additional Senate seat this year (and they are likely to pick up several) the Democrats will immediately dump Lieberman from all of his committee seats.
Lieberman knows this. If McCain wins, then Lieberman will get a cabinet seat. If McCain loses, then Lieberman will serve out the rest of his Senate term with no committee assignments and no power at all in the Senate.
I would like to think that Lieberman made a principled stand, but I remember too well when he was half of Sore/Loserman.

Oh yes, i remember it well, but I seem to recall that he wasn't nearly as obnoxious as Algore in the aftermath.
