    Absolutely. It will infurate the liberals and will once again show people their true colors. It seems many have forgotten and have shrugged liberals off as "normal Americans".

    No he should run as a the Neo-con Republican who that he really is.

    "Having Lieberman on board is important for the Bush administration and its Republican allies, who like to suggest that there is broad support for the president's failed approach to Iraq. It's no small thing, when criticizing Democrats who express sensible concerns about the war, to be able to say: "Even the man Democrats nominated for vice president in 2000 says the president is right to stay the course."

    There is no question that Lieberman's stance undercuts attempts -- hapless as they may be -- by Democrats to send clear signals regarding their concerns about a war that a clear majority of Americans now describe as "a mistake.""

    Why should democrats vote for one who actively and deliberately destroys his own party? Because his buddy Rove who contacted him to help him says so?

    Does it really matter. The facts are that the Republicans run better campaigns than the Democrats. The Dems will complain about everything, play the blame game, incite racism and class warfare during the elections. Their problem will be that they will have no ideas as usual and the public will see right through their so called new democrats platform. Same crap, different year.

    As a Republican i imagine it is a good component that Lieberman lost contained in the regularly going on. that is going to coach the country how far to the left the Democrats have gone. at the same time as Joe wins contained in the final election the Democrats will come crying to him for help. What do you imagine he will do. As for warfare, I hate warfare! they say warfare is Hell yet i imagine dropping at warfare is worse!! purely ask easily all of us contained in the towers on 9-11.

    I hope not. I like Joe but he would be splitting the vote. The Dems., make that American people,have got to take our country back. Big oil and big business have been raking it in and raping the working man and woman for eight solid years. I'm afraid another Republican term would spell doom.

    You bet he should! We are in desperate need of clear thinking, reasonable thinking, decent, honest politicians in our government but the radical liberals don't want that.

    They have absolutely no loyalty to a man who has served them honorably and honestly for years.

    What in the world does LaMont have to offer except more divisive politics to tear this country farther apart.

    I hope he does. Even he votes against what I support, 90% of the time, at least he is for fighting terrorism. Considering his constituency, I'll take it.

    I tink Liebs is done. I mean to take a page out of Sam B (T.D.S. w. Jon Stewart)'s book, I'll put it in a dating metaphor...they're just not that into you Liebs. Sorrrryyy man, apparently Connecticut is a blue state, not half red and half blue...er...purple.....BLUE!

    LoL.
