He has already announced his tack. Condemn rabid patisianship. That was clear from his speech last night. And it was clear WHO he was referring to.

It's a shame then that Maxine Waters tells poor blacks to stay on the same government handout/white guilt plantation instead of touting her own very successful formula of hard work.

She should know better than to promote a socialist agenda.

Leave it to you to praise an America hating lunatic. If that dumbass is the face of the Party of Treason a huge defeat is looming for it. How sweet it is.

Not at all I would be delerious if Ninny ran as an Independent.

Nor is Lieberman's loss of the primary the voice of the "voters" merely the voice of some democrats. A tiny minority of the voters. Lieberman loves his country more than his party. That is admirable not criticizable.

We are speaking of Conn., any republican there would be little different from Lieberman. Certainly a dreaded RINO to most here.

For tactical reason Joe is the way to go.

The radical left drove Johnson from office. They rejected old-line liberal Hubert Humphrey as being too tied to "the establishment"... and they inadvertently helped elect Richard Nixon, because the "SDS/Black Panther/Revolution Now" faction of the Democrats drove every sane person in the country away from their party.

I call shenanigans. Nixon won because of his deft use of the Southern Strategy, picking up all the Southern whites disenchanted with the Democrat party because of civil rights.

Lieberman: "Respectfully, no. I am committed to this campaign, to a different kind of politics, to bringing the Democratic party back from Ned Lamont, Maxine Waters to the mainstream."

This is why I'm supporting him. That and his stance on the WOT.

No one can convince me it is good for the COUNTRY to have Kos's puppet, Waters and Dean running this country, just so they can have an election symbol to say the other guy is a kook. That may be but having kooks in elected office is not a laughing matter.

OK. Just as long as you are being consistent. There are a LOT of people who post here who disagree with what you said(which doesn't necessarily make them right).

Why ? Joe is no better than a RINO - I think he and Chaffee have nearly the same voting record.

Frankly, I think it is Lieberman's to lose.

I agree entirely. I think Lamont is going to have a very hard time getting many more votes than he got in the primary - his hard-left supporters were motivated to show up.

Now Lieberman stands between him and the moderates he needs to win. The pubbie has no chance of winning. Which means Lieberman will get moderate support by the bucketload, while Lamont's over-the-top supporters will alientate the moderates he needs to win.

Earlier today I heard him smear Maxine Waters.

Maxine is a demented wingnut. I know plenty of folks who work hard and are still whacked-out.

he Democratic Party will thrive quite nicely without Joe Lieberman.

Yeah, just as you've done so well ever since you exiled pro-lifers from the party.

Maxine Waters and other hard working Americans are the backbone of our party.

Guess what? The Dems can no longer pretend otherwise. And that's gonna kill them.

Joe is on board on the most important issue facing the nation and as such is of use. The Republican alternative is not only unknown but also apparently has some ethical problems.

Perhaps you never heard the phrase "Politics makes strange bedfellows"?

Sure :) Similar to "lie down with dogs and wake up with fleas" ?

Why isn't anyone asking the "unknown" what his views are - and getting them out there ? Diane Irey has done a good job campaigning against Murtha so far. I don't know why no one seems to be curious about the Republican.
