Sen. Joe Lieberman warns the United States will likely face a terrorist attack in 2009 and feels Republican presidential nominee John McCain will be better prepared to handle the imminent attack than Democratic rival Barack Obama.

"Our enemies will test the new president early,” Lieberman says during on interview Sunday on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”

“Remember the truck bombing of the World Trade Center happened in the first year of the Clinton administration, and 9/11 happened in the first year of the Bush administration," he notes.

Lieberman, a four-term former Democratic incumbent from Connecticut who now aligns himself with the Independent Party, says he prefers Sen. McCain’s approach to foreign policy over that of Sen. Obama’s, citing McCain’s experience “will make the United States' enemies weak and [its] allies strong.”

McCain “knows the world," Lieberman explains. "He's been tested, and he's ready to protect the security of the American people."

Lieberman says the United States is in desperate need of a commander-in-chief who will be prepared to lead the nation on day one of taking office. McCain, he concedes, is that person.

I have never been a socialist, so I must not have any heart.

I’m not clinging to this theory (or guns or religion) but it does make me wonder....

My apologies, I was being a bit of a smart@$$ with my response. I think the potential is extremely likely if Obama is elected and less so if McVain is elected. Talk about picking yer poison!!
