Lieberman's loss will undoubtedly lead to the death of the Democratic Party as a force in mainstream politics.

Why doesn't he try to run as a Republican, then? Seems he would have a better chance in the GOP primary.

Lieberman will win becuase Morris is always wrong. But, I do agree that if he did lose we would eb the winners.

We need to come up with a "Dick Morris Scorecard" and keep track of his predictions.

This may shock some, but he doesn't always get it right.

The king of the bad predictions strikes again! I know Morris is basing this on his primary opponent's recent gain in the polls, but I submit he's about peaked at his ceiling of support of around 35%. This guy's ceiling of support is in no way over 50%. If it's over 40% I'll eat my hat.

I wish in a way this were true because then Lieberman will become an independent thus depriving the Dems. of a seat in the Senate, but then Lieberman deserves to win the primary outright because of his principled and courageous stand supporting the liberation of Iraq. It's a shame the deceived Democrats (redundant I know) of CT. can't see that.

Dick Morris has been wrong on practically every prediction he has made.
Trouble with the dick-head is, he thinks everyone is as sleazy as his erstwhile boss BJ Klinnton, and sees everything trough the prism of his experiences as Klinton's hatchet man.
Morris should bear in mind that his boss never won 50% of the popular vote ever, and without Ross Perot, he and his wife would be growing corn in Arkansas by now.

Good news for Lieberman -- Dickie is always wrong.

One thing consistent about Morris - his inability to get it right.

Dick is wrong. As usual. Lieberman will win by 10 points. Mark my words.

If Lieberman loses the primary, the GOP needs to rally around Alan Schlesinger.

Lieberman’s correct course of action is to withdraw from the primary and run as an independent. It is the only way he can get re-elected.”

If Lieberman runs as an Independent, the first question asked will be how he will vote to organize if he wins. That will force him to align with the Democrats or the Republicans, which will make his independence moot. If he says he'll organize with the Democrats, then that will just defer the primary to the general election, and the same contest will result. If he says he will organize with the Republicans, why would the Democrats of Connecticut vote for him?

Dick isn't predicting the race, he is trying to influence it.

Since outright statements to influence the race would be blatant bias, he does the next best thing

Spin, spin, spin

Seems like what is happening to DINO Joe with the Democrats is what the single-issue Republicans want to happen with RINOs.

Dick only has to get one really good prediction right, and he'll ensure another 2 years on the payroll. He's running short, so he's taken several long positions trying for the one big score.

After all, the anti-bill-clinton schtick only works for so long.

Morris:
"Hillary Clinton will NOT run for the senate from New York."
then:
"Hillary Clinton will NOT win the senatorial race in New York."

What’s more, if Lieberman then runs in the general election as an independent, he will be "so crippled” by his defeat in the August 8 primary, and his Democratic opponent Ned Lamont "so empowered,” that Lieberman will lose the general election as well and give up his seat in the Senate, says Morris.

Good thing Morris is never tight. Just ask President Gore and Senator Lazio.
