One thing I am betting on for 2012
No more Lieberman. He either won't run (and will retire to some cushy job), or get his ass-handed to him.

1. I would not bet too much money.
Ego will not let him retire. The best we can wish for is that he is defeated in the next election.

2. I think you're right, and it can't happen soon enough.
I really don't see how the people of Connecticut can be fooled into reelecting him to the Senate again. Not now.

The only hope he has at this point for remaining in politics would be a Repuke victory against Obama in 2012, someone that would be willing to give him a Cabinet position.

In fact, that may be what he is banking on. It certainly would explain his recent behavior.

3. I wouldn't mind that second one....
.... as long as a Democrat replaced him.
