I trust Joe Lieberman infinitly more than I trust some Republicans. He had the balls to run as an independent in one of the most liberal states in the country and beat Ned LaMont, who was the party’s choice.
In winning, he totally blew the theory that the 2006 election was a referendum on the war!
Yes, he’s a social liberal, yet he’s on our side on the important issue of national defense. I like him, and I would take him as VP any day over a Obama White House. Whatever it takes to beat Obama is fine by me.
I call BS. Sounds like a Dem script for disheartening conservatives.
Lieberman's ACU rating in 2007 was 8.
Obama's was 7.
A week or so ago, I had a dream that this happened. :(
Wouldn’t put it past the bipartisan maverick to do something like running with a Dem. But what good would it do him?
Competing trial balloons—first Romney, then Pawlenty, Romney again, and now Lieberman. This really is getting old...
I dont see it happening
Ah, yes … the rumor mill grinds on. ;-)
I call B.S.
Lieberman would be orders of magnitude better than the obamanation the DemocRATS are nominating.
McCain/Lieberman UUUUUKKKK! The KISS of Boring Antiques, each can put you to sleep faster than a bottle of AMBIEN!
Please tell alll this is a wild butt rumor being started by the Idiot Dodd.:-)
I’m currently planning on joining the ‘Getdrunkandvote4McCain’ crowd.
Lieberman as VP would push me in to the ‘VoteObamaandhopeitisn’tallbad’ crowd.
McCain MUST pick a woman, IMHO.
This is what happens when the various factions of the party all insist on voting for their ideal candidate in the primaries. The moral of the story is that a good way to get the opposite of what you want is to insist on full and complete satisfaction of all your requirements.
United we stand. Divided we fall.
If this is true, I’m moving to Costa Rica.
“Whatever it takes to beat Obama is fine by me.”
McCain should pick Hillary then.
That's the worst advice yet.
However,FWIW, if McCain were to do this, he would absolutely lose my support and vote...which is being given very reluctantly as it is and only in an effort to defeat Obama.
But by putting an abortionist on the ticket with him, one heart beat from the Presidency, he would lose what I am willing to do.
Too conservative.
(only kidding)
This is a red herring. McCain will pick hopefully pick someone who is a telegenic live wire, and who has nothing to do with the Congress.
I respectfully disagree.
John McCain is that arrogant.
But John McCain is not that stupid.
