SOMERSWORTH, N.H. (AP) -- Democratic presidential contender Joe Lieberman began the final month of the New Hampshire primary campaign Sunday with an attack on Howard Dean's lack of foreign policy experience, calling him a rookie.

Trying to close the gap between himself and the leader in the polls, Lieberman said it is no time for "on-the-job training" in foreign policy.

"I just don't think it's time for a rookie," he told reporters on one of his six campaign stops during the day.

"We're not going to convince the American people to replace George W. Bush with someone who's taken repeated impulsive positions and then constantly had to explain what he said," Lieberman said at another stop.

2. way to go, Joe . . .

give the Repugs more ammunition for the general election . . . when Democrats spend their time attacking other Democrats rather than going after Bush and proposing innovative policy initiatives, there ain't much hope for 2004, imo . . . though I'm not a Dean supporter, I'm tired as hell of all the Dean sniping, even from my own candidate, John Kerry . . . makes me just want to sit out the primary season . . . I'll vote for whoever we nominate in November, though, because four more years of BushCo could well mean the end of the American republic as we know it . . . until then, if these guys don't have something nice to say about their fellow Dems, they shouldn't say anything at all . . .
