[WakeUpAndVote]

Let's see if things start to get back to normal now. Not much of a scheduel at all at the GOP site. I am sure they are put things in line as fast as they can.

[PhiKapMom]

The real ticket for change this election is the McCain/ Palin ticket.

Boy, he probably should throw in the towel and become one of us now.

This is strong against Obama -- Schumer and Reid must be crapping about now!

[SE Mom]

Thank you, Senator Lieberman.

[Right_in_Virginia]

I think Lieberman’s speech was extraordinary.

[tioga]

Thanks, Joe. That took class and courage!

[KevinDavis]

In all fairness Clinton vetoed it twice, but he approved it during an “election” year.. Had he not, Bob Dole would have been President..

[AFPhys]

Liebermann certainly isn’t getting the response Zell did in 2004 but it ain’t bad.

This is not a red meat speech as Zell’s was... this is intended and aimed STRAIGHT at the independents/ moderates/ swayable Democrats.

Excellent job, too.

[Shortstop7]

I think he did a fine job.

[DrDeb]

Lieberman is no ZELL MILLER!

[The President and Laura should have had his time slot!]

[patriot08]

They made me cry, too.
(it’s ok. I’m a girl- not a war vet LOL)

[Tanniker Smith]

One poster there noted that there could NOT have been any gay input on the set design.

LOL!!

Too late! The Log Cabin Republicans already endorsed McCain.

[retrokitten]

Is it the guy going "YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!" ?

That'd be him. LOL

[Mr. Binnacle]

Very Courageous of Joe. He must be horrified at the state of his party in today’s world. Country First!

[winstonwolf33]

Yay!

[Son House]

Lieberman is doing well. He isn’t speaking as a liberal. I think his speech is important after Obama marched out several fake Republicans saying they where supporting him. He is speaking as a seasoned statesman, not as a partisan politician.

point

[luvie]

A whiny Secretary of State?

Fred...yes. Lieberman...um....no!

Lieberman could be the Secretary of the Inerior. LOL!

[ConservativeMan55]

Great job by Lieberman!

[STARWISE]

Lieberman could not do it with the gravitas
and emphasis vocally that Fred did. I think
Fred was the PERFECT man. LOVED seeing him
tell this the dramatic history.

What actually happens to POWs isn’t something
the younger generation hears much about today.
I hope millions heard what sacrifice, honor and
love of country really mean.

Think about it: over 5 years of brutality and
torture.

[mylife]

L0L!!!

[youturn]

note to DNC:

Find the over-exuberant drunk shouting “Yeah! Yeah!” and move the mike away from that area tomorrow night. Please! Please, before Palin speaks.

The people in his delagation should shut him up.

[SuziQ]

I thought Lieberman’s speech was pretty good!!
