You are absolutely correct. Are you in Connecticut?

No, but I'm not the one talking about "supporting" him. A lot of freepers send money to other states, etc. Not very federalistic of them, I say.

AH. So you can be AGAINST someone from a different state, but not supportive. Huh.

In any case, I will not be directly financially supporting Lieberman because we have a big enough job in my state getting Cantwell tossed and that is my job, while the Lieberman issue is for the voters of Connecticut to decide. We agree there.

That said, I find your responses intriguing since my original post to you was regarding whether the man was a sore loser or not. My bottom line is that this move is not indicative of poor sportsmanship, but rather a decision to stick to his values.

It would have been cheaper and easier for him to simply bow to his constituents and go all out anti-Iraq-pull-them-out-now if it was just about the job. It appears he chose the hard way based on principle. Or, from your perspective the hard way because....he wants his job which makes little logical sense to me, but you may be right.

In any case, no harm no foul. We just start from different perspectives on this one.
