Chairman of the sub-committee on National Park PReservation beats ranking member of the sub-committee for under water basket weaving any day.

"He takes his medicine like a rat."

For Lieberman to leave the Dems right now would be like a rat frantically swimming out to the Titanic. He ain't gonna do it.

4. No, he won't have the chance to do so, because we'll kick his butt out.
Ashbin of history.

6. That won't happen either. At least I don't think so.
We're too close to the magical 60, and Lieberman would be there at least on most domestic bread & butter issues.

7. Lieberman is honestly a modern tragedy. What an asshole and such a whiner.
Maybe that's what Phil Graham was talking about.

11. I'm not sure we'll ever know
the circumstances of his leaving his chairmanship. But I believe it will be a balance between the Democratic leadership not wanting to appear hard-assed and Lieberman maximizing his own political interests to the fullest extent possible. In other words, our own public vindication will be limited and very, very unsatisfying.:mad:
