Joe Lieberman Continues to Impress Voters That Will Never Vote For Him |
|
The two descriptions I like best about Connecticut Senator Joe Lieberman are as follows:
"Joe Lieberman: A New Kind of Democrat, the Republican Kind..." -Anonymous
"Joe Lieberman is the candidate for people who like George W. Bush, but think he isn't Jewish enough." -Bill Maher
Lieberman's campaign on all things slightly-right-of-center has earned him an endorsement from New Hampshire's largest news paper, The Union Leader. For a little background, The Union Leader's editorial page makes the Wall Street Journal look like it was written by Ralph Nader.
Here's a question I think is pretty valid as far Joe is concerned. Do you honestly believe the authors of this ringing endorsement...
"Make no mistake. We have great differences with many of his social and big-spending positions, but in a campaign in which the flip-flops and outrageous statements are unending, Joe Lieberman's refusal to pander is refreshing and remarkable. He is worth the consideration and support of independent-minded primary voters..."
....would EVER vote for you against George Bush in 2004??? Keep on working the Fox News crowd, Joe. You're almost out of the race!
I gotta try this:
"Joe Lieberman: The Democrat That Republicans Pretend to Not Hate..."

1. I think Joe will disappear pretty quickly |
|
Unfortunately, his supporters are about as likely to go to Bush as to any Democrat.

3. The second quote is from Jon Stewart, not Bill Maher |
