Sean Hannity to offer his endorsement to Lieberman

[BushOut06]

Heard on his show that he's going to offer his endorsement to Lieberman, who is supposed to be on soon to say whether or not he will accept it (probably will).

Does Lieberman even have a GOP opponent running against him? And what does it say when Hannity offers his support to the Democrat in the race?

I'm just about to leave work here, so I won't be on for awhile - but if anyone else is listening to the show, please keep us posted whether or not Lieberman accepts.

1. why

does this not surprise me?

[Hawkeye-X]

2. Lieberman has a primary opponent.

Neil Lamont, I believe.

Donate to him.

[pstokely]

4. is he taking donations?

12. He just did a fundraiser in LA.

I'm in NorCal, but our county dems forwarded me the email. So, I'm thinking yes.

5. Can anyone vote

in the primary? Or just registered Dems? Is Diebold in Ct.?

7. Just registered Dems....

....no Diebold.

11. Look at Ned Lamont 's bio.

The guy is awesome!!

17. If Hannity does this and Lieberman accepts it this

would be the perfect ad for his opponent in the democratic race.

3. Keep sleeping with the snakes Lieberman

You'll get bit soon enough. The people of CT. won't put up with much more.

10. Lieberman did have some GOP schmo running against him....

He's a shoo-in for re-election.

14. in 2000, Lieberman had Phil Giordano as his opponent

Rememeber that name? He was the one that got sent up the river for a long time for soliciting sex from a prostitute's pre-teen daughter.

So far, no opponent for 2006.

[MrBenchley]

18. Yeah, Giordano charged that Joe was "soft" on child pornography

but turned out to be a child molester himself....one of several in the GOP stable.

I thought there was a barber who had announced he wanted to be GOP candidate?

13. the NRA does this too.

They pick a Democrat that has almost no chance of being defeated, and then they endorse that Democrat. Then down the road they can claim that they support some Democrats too, so that they can't be accused of being partisan. I guess Hannity's now an independant just like Bill O'Reilly.

15. Sort of like how Wal-Mart throws a few bucks to the Dems, too

I think I saw that they gave like 78% Republican, 22% Democrat for less than $100K.

But, behind the scenes, the Walton Foundations gives $100 million (or more) per year to various Right Wing causes, but not directly to Republican candidates.

16. A sleazy Republican endording another sleazy Republican. How about that!
