Fox & Friends (Lieberman may caucus with the GOP)

Fox & Friends this morning are reporting that Lieberman may caucus with the GOP if he wins re-election to the Senate from Connecticut as an Independent.

This may be the reason why Bush and many prominent Republicans are singing the praises of Senator Joe Lieberman.

Lamont appears in the stupidest campaign ad I have ever seen.

It features a fat actor with an enormous white wig who drives a Lincoln Town Car into a series of brick walls grafittoed with "Iraq War" and "Social Security Privatization" and "No Child Left Behind." Each time the actor gets out and says stuff like "How'd that get there?" and "Didin't see that one coming!"

Ned Lamont walks into the frame and says that Liberman is too clueless to be Senator.

It is the worst ad in terms of effectiveness I've ever seen.

The Lamontbats have lost it.

He has a very big lead.

I have a feeling that when he gets back in, his "buddies" e.g. Dodd, Kennedy, Dean, etrc. etc. are going to pay big time for what they did to Joey.

[Savage Beast]

Get elected, Joe. Then change parties.

You're obviously a man of integrity. There's no place for such a man in the 21st-century Democrat Party. Get out. Then explain these facts of life to the remaining decent Democrat supporters who are still in denial.

On the subject of Sen. Lieberman....

Thou shalt not steal

[LibLieSlayer]

It's a darn good thing you are not running the effort to retain control and protection of our country. He voted to support the Military and the War and that is enough right now to help him defeat someone (lament) that is so far to the left that he lines up with buchanan on the right!

"Lieberman remains a far-left radical extremist."

That is an incorrect statement. Liberman is a RINO with his party affiliation being Democrat. Lieberman can just as easily fit into the Republican party and vote the same way all of the Northeast Republicans vote.

You have to differentiate between Marxist and Liberal. They are two completely different things that people like Limbaugh and Hannity are too afraid to point out. Reason? They don't want to be labeled McCarthyites and forced out of their jobs.

[Bush gal in LA]

EEEwwww! Your RIGHT! It sounds like a last minute '' dirty trick,desperation lie'' from the LEMEMT camp! Why didn't I think of that?!

[RightOnTheLeftCoast]

Fox & Friends should STFU if this is true.

But I doubt it is. Lieberman is a committed Third Way socialist. He is merely clear-headed on the topic of Islamic fascism.

[LibLieSlayer]

chafee voted Bush's Judicial Nominees out of committee 100% of the time. For no other reason that makes him better than the dim!

[Fresh Wind]

Lie-berman will caucus with whoever gives him the best offer.

[RightOnTheLeftCoast]

"You have to differentiate between Marxist and Liberal. They are two completely different things..."

No they are not.

[Lurking in Kansas]

Does this mean I need to stop calling him Loserman?

Don't count on it. Lieberman is still a registered Democrat. he publicly stated two weeks ago he hopes the Democrats take control fo Congress. The Democrats are donatin money to his campaign. Lamont Gets Little From Senate Dems

"Lieberman, a three-term incumbent, is highly regarded in Washington circles, and his campaign finance report showed his Democratic donor base remains eager to give him money."

The Democrats still have strong ties with him. In the same article:

"Democrats know they can't afford to alienate Lieberman," said political analyst Jennifer Duffy, not only because they want his cooperation on legislation if he wins, but because of the potential that Democrats will win Senate control next month by a 51-49 majority."

Lieberman is trying to hoodwink the RINO's in Connecticut and they are falling for it hook, line and sinker. A vote for Lieberman is a vote for the RATS who we all know would be a disaster for our national security.

[Man50D]

Joe will drop this whole 'independent' farce and be back with the party within six months, mark my words.

He's still a registered Democrat.

[gridlock]

Do they have any reason to believe that this is true, or they just talking out of their... collective ignorance... again?

[Proud_texan]

"The same is true of Lincoln Chafee, yet he caucuses with the GOP!"

As much disdain as I have for Chafee you only have to go back to the 2000 election where jumpin' Joe signed on lock, stock and loony barrel as Gore's VP.

So either he's an opportunist willing to say anything or he's a full blown loon except when it comes to Israel and the ME.

[Proud_texan]

"Liberman is a RINO with his party affiliation being Democrat."

So when he was running as Gore's VP he was just kiddin'?

[mewzilla]

I wish they'd go back to the bull.

[aligncare]

We are engaged in a struggle for America's survival. We need all the political help we can muster to defeat the traitorous Leftist democrats in congress who seek our defeat in this war against radical Islam.

I'll take Joe's help in that battle - despite his liberalism on other issues.

[bobjam]

That rumor may very well have originated with Lamont's campaign. Lieberman has a double digit lead in most polls, so the Democrats are telling voters that Lieberman will push the GOP agenda.
