Would Lieberman run as an independent for Pres?
Would that kill Dem's or Repub's hopes for the WH?

3. It would probably do more harm to the GOP in 2008
On the other hand, his principle issue, whether he wants it that way or not, will be foreign policy where he is taking positions that are merely losing ones, but positions that are completely discredited.

He won't hurt anybody.

4. i don't think so
It's possible - but I think Republicans would have to put up someone truly awful before he'd consider it. I mean his base is going to be Republicans.

5. Once McCain loses the Republican nod
I fully expect him to pull a page out of the "NoMoJo" playbook and he and Joe run on a ticket of "bipartisanship".:rofl::puke:

6. Joe Lieberman is DESPISED by most people in this country.
I'm glad he will be at the 2008 GOP Convention.
