Oh, what heady days those were, when Lieberman rode shotgun for his entire political party. But then came the Iraq war, Terri Schiavo, the imminently blog-a-licious kiss, and a stunningly whiny campaign in which Lieberman took umbrage that the electorate was willing to offload him after 18 years of free haircuts and multiple rides in the senator-only elevator. He did more than that, but he also attached his wagon to Bush's fading star once (or twice) too often. And so the electorate handed the election to upstart Ned Lamont, who presented himself as the anti-war candidate and more.

Mikey's pals and others who take cheer in the killing of innocents like Terri can take solice in support from friends like The Progressive...

The anti-war left is not some crazy fringe group. It is the American mainstream. And it is not Lamont or MoveOn and DailyKos that are out of touch. It is the politicians and pundits in Washington who continue to kowtow to this incredibly destructive Administration.

Snip

Alter even stoops to armchair psychology, diagnosing Lamont supporters, especially bloggers, with a case of "projection"-- i.e. their real beef is with Bush, but they take it out on Joe Lieberman. But if anyone needs a shrink, it's Lieberman, who spent years bashing his own party--from his sanctimonious cameo in the Monica Lewinsky affair, to his repeated appearances on Fox News to warn that Democrats were giving aid and comfort to America's enemies when they criticized Bush' conduct in Iraq (shades of Cheney), to his bizarre stand for government interference in the Terri Schiavo case.
