Conn. — Striding onto the U.S. House floor for his 2005 State of the Union speech, George W. Bush halted, reached his left hand behind Sen. Joe Lieberman’s head, and plunged his kisser to the Connecticut Democrat’s cheek before an international TV audience.

Of all the senators in all the blue states, W puckers up for Joe Lieberman.

Now the onetime Democratic hero of South Florida’s condo complexes, the guy who came just a few hanging Florida chad shy of the vice presidency, is fighting for his political life. The Kiss looms large.

Among the growing number of Nutmeg State Democrats eager to oust the three-term incumbent, activists sport buttons picturing the Bush smooch. Ardent and angry liberal bloggers run video clips of The Kiss online to help pump money to Lieberman’s Democratic opponent, Ned Lamont. A July Fourth parade float in Willimantic featured giant papier-mache versions of Lieberman and Bush preparing to mash faces, while the real Lieberman drew boos at the parade.

“I didn’t kiss him back,” the 64-year-old Lieberman assured Democrats at one recent gathering.
