I know Lieberman's a liberal, but didn't he used to hold a few conservative positions before he joined Gore on the ticket? He was pro-school vouchers, I'm pretty sure, and I think there were two or three other things -- maybe parental notification even if he is overall pro-abort.

GOP Turnout Very High in my Precinct
Okay, I'm paranoid. Turnout in my profoundly republican precinct was 31% at noon -- I'm told that's high. I live in the Baltimore suburbs...

You know, I just don't remember. You could be right. I've come to respect Lieberman, but I don't think he would be comfortable in the Republican party and vice versa.
Lieberman ran as pro-life against Lowell Weicker in his first run for Senator. He votes pro-abortion.
He observed the Sabbath all the while he was a Senator. Until he was on the ticket with Al Gore, then he campaigned on Saturdays.
He was outraged at Bill Clinton's behavior as President until it was time to vote on his impeachment. Then Lieberman voted Not Guilty.
Joe Lieberman is a lying backstabber who deserves all of the derision he gets from the Democrats and Republicans. I wouldn't trust him (or vote for him) ever!
