Thank you for posting that article. I had not seen it.
Wow. I supported him all along. If he were a dynamic speaker, he would be President. While it doesn't quite seem like he is a whisker away from changing parties, his threat will be highly influential.

I think Joe's position is pretty powerful. At any moment, he can hand control of the Senate to the GOP. The Democrats will do almost ANYTHING to prevent that. So Joe will have a lot of power within the Democratic party, even though they have marginalized him. He will be able to curb the most radical and destructive ideas of the Democrats (like cutting off funding for troops in combat). So I hope he does NOT go to the GOP, I hope he uses his position to rein in the liberal extremes.

Yes, Lieberman is an Independent, not a Democrat. No true Democrat considered him an ally anyway. Trading kisses with Bush kind of showed where he stood. He is an opportunist and this move will not help him.

Lieberman is not a Democrat. He's an Independent. And a smart one at that!

If this doesn't prove how extreme the Democrat Party is, nothing will. Here's the guy that was their VICE PRESIDENTAL canidate in 2000, and now they treat him like an unwanted stepchild. He was voted out of his primary.

"He was voted out of his primary." That's the key right there he ain't been a Democrat since last year so screw him, we still got the house so whoever thinks the Senate alone gives you control is an idiot as well

Joe Lieberman hasn't been a Democrat for years. This is no shocker to anyone.

He may well be the only Democrat with real courage.
