liar man has a 17% ACU rating. That is lower than any rino even chaffee, snow collins etc. Let him win as an indy and stay that way.

While I'm a big believer in ACU ratings, they can be manipulated by party-line voting an matters that are already settled. Meaning, if chaffee, snow, collins were Dims, they'd vote with their party a few more times when things don't really matter and that would lower their rating, if Lieb was a Pubbie, his score would be raised for the same reason. (Pols generally avoid taking the heat for dissing their party only when they need to. - McCain needs to for media praise.)

The whole thing tells you more about his party than it does about him

re: lieberman is a liberal in all things but Israel.)))

You nailed it, and that's the Stealth Issue that Lamont is banking on.

Visit one of Lamont's blogs, and notice all the "code language" going on there about Israel, and you'll see what is truly driving Lamont's campaign. Have you heard even a whisper of this from anybody? You'd have to read the blogs to even know it's going on.

Iraq is the text. Israel is the subtext.

Have you noticed the complete lack of vocal Jewish support for Lieberman?

re: It won't go over well. On the other hand, there really aren't that many Jewish voters.)))

It isn't the numbers of voters, it's the amount of political interest in the way of donations and fund-raising and public statements, etc.

Has anyone else noticed that Lieberman is being hung out to dry by more than just the Democrats?

I have very mixed feelings about this race. Okay, not VERY. Barring repentance, Lieberman will always be in my Hall of Shame for single-handedly saving Clinton's pasty white butt with his "Naughty! Naughty! Okay, let's move on" speech in the Senate.

Wasn't it Ann Coulter who said something like, "Joe is always wrestling with his conscience and his conscience always loses"?

True that.

I have to admire the libs for booting this guy. I wish conservatives would do the same about Chafee.

Over the weekend LIEberman jumped on her heinous' bandwagon and called for Rumsfeld to resign.

Lieberman always does what's best....... for himself....... and now he's getting exactly what he deserves.

What is a lobster roll?

Every New Englander knows this is a gift from God.

The classic is a butter-toasted, soft-sided hot dog roll (of a style found only in New England) filled to overflowing with lobster meat chunks mixed with mayo.

Served with a side of cole slaw.

I doubt that throwing Lieberman overboard is going to go over well for the Dems among Jewish voters.

Excellent point!

I called his D.C. office and left a nice sweet message remarking on how much I am enjoying his misery.

Lobster roll to go.

BTW, those soft-sided rolls---found only in New England for some reason----elevate the lowly hot dog to gourmet status.

The dog and the roll are toasted in butter, then served. Eaten New England-style, with mustard AND sweet pickle relish (sometimes called picalilly)

His saving Clinton from impeachment was the clincher. LIEB talked the big talk for the cameras---but when it came to walk the walk, he folded-up like a cheap cardboard box.

.....so much for Bill Clinton campaigning for someone.......he is yet the only one he has ever gotten elected is himself!....

Tipoff: You knew LIEb was in trouble when he hauled in WJC as a campaign device.

Yep. Jaw, jaw, jaw. But bottom line, vote Dem, vote babykilling, vote to clear Clinton.

Marketplace value of TALK is the same as ever.
