Wow, just when you think the dems can go no lower .....
How is this different from the Republicans' support of Leiberman? Aren't they trying to split the Democratic vote? Face it, it's a campaign strategy that works both ways. I'm not sure that the fact the Republicans would be thrilled to have Leiberman actually elected and, obviously, the Democrats would choke if Richardson were elected makes that much difference. You win a war by either defeating your opponent outright or by dividing and conquering him.
Gimme a break, Karl Rove or the RNC would do the same in a heartbeat!
