Lieberman Hopes His Fate Isn’t Sealed With a Kiss (!!!!)
Get a load of this piece of puffery from the New York Times:
http://www.nytimes.com/2006/07/16/washington/16lieberman.html?hp&ex=1153022400&en=2660cd567080dcda&ei=5094&partner=homepage

....
Mr. Lieberman’s physical posture is more hunched than usual these days, his normally deep and lulling cadences more clipped. “I should probably cut off this line of questioning,” he said in a discussion relating to his recent announcement that he would run as an independent if he did not get the Democratic nomination. “I’m focused on the primary.”
....

or:

....
Senator John McCain, Republican of Arizona and one of Mr. Lieberman’s closest friends in the Senate, called him “one of the most decent men I have ever known” and simply shook his head when asked about his friend’s situation. “I hesitate to say anything nice about him, for fear that it would be used against him,” Mr. McCain said. “And that’s a terrible commentary on the state of politics and the political climate today.”
....

or:

....
People close to Mr. Lieberman say he has been wounded by the conditional devotion he has received from most of his Democratic colleagues in the Senate. Mr. Lieberman says this is not true, that he is not bothered. “Probably some of my fellow senators are more uncomfortable about this than I am,” he said. “Because truly, I haven’t asked a single one of them for a commitment beyond the primary.”
....

Poor Little Joe Lieberman.
I wonder if he is also feeling sorry for the thousands of dead american soldiers, the hundreds of thousands of dead iraqi civilians, and everything else that comes attached to this neocon disaster.
