Lieberman as Vice-President? HELL NO.

Lieberman as Secretary of State? I wouldn’t object. I’d rather see somebody a lot more pugnacious like John Bolton, but Lieberman could do a pretty credible job. If nothing else, he could bore some of our enemies into signing treaties with us...

One other thing to consider, we'll still have to deal with the threat of filibusters - whether or not we have the Senate. We may want Bolton, or even Lieberman as SoS or SecDef, but if they get filibustered like the judges did...we may not get them...

And if McCain wins but the Senate is still RAT-controlled, we can forget about recess appointments. All the more reason to support the Republican ticket, top to bottom. Granted, many of them aren't as conservative as we'd like, and frankly some of them piss us off. But if a vote for a "conservative" Democrat is a vote for Reid and Pelosi (and we see how well THAT turned out), then a vote for a less than conservative Republican, given the choice between two main options, is a vote for McConnell and Boehner (plus whomever would replace Bela Pelosi as speaker).
