Connecticut Sen. Joseph Lieberman, who called for a board of inquiry

Liberman's presidential hopes are showing. He must know any blame that falls on the Clinton admin. will also fall on Gore, effectivly eliminating Gore as a future candidate for president. It will also seriously damage Hillary's chances. Leaving the door open for Liberman.

Right now Bush would seem unbeatable in 2004, but you never know how it will look in 4 years.

Of course, Liberman could also be setting himself up for the first war-time, bipartisan ticket: Bush / Liberman. It sounds strange, but stranger things have happened.

I was asking on Capitol Grilling a couple of weeks ago who the Dems could turn to after Sept. 11. The British Tories turned to Churchill after the coming of WWII discredited the appeasers, and I asked who would be the Dems' Churchill. I had just heard Lieberman speaking at a hearing on terrorism that had been repeated on C-SPAN, and I suggested he might well be the man.

This news from yesterday makes that suggestion seem even more plausible. We certainly do need an inquiry of some sort into the things that went wrong that could allow Sept. 11.
