This all begs the question of how this guy got the GOP nomination in the first place.
True and then if Joe wins and is not allowed Caucus rights in the DEM set-up, where will he feel used in party politics. He will not become a RINO Pub, we could use his vote, but might he not actually vote more for Pub stuff? I personally do not think so. He was a liberal in all but the national security question. Still, being dissed by his life-long party might push Joe to consider some Pub agendas when voting.
On paper, he's not a bad candidate. Former Mayor of a smaller town, former State Legislator, it's just the scandles that weren't known at the time that makes him bad.
That, and the fact that so many Republicans like Lieberman, which is kinda justified, but not to the degree it's justified.
Lieberman is like McCain, Like McCain is seen as far more liberal then he actually is, Lieberman is seen as far more conservative then he actually is.
That said, he's probably the best choice for Republicans this cycle, just because of the WOT.
