Thanks so much for that link and info, kidd. My husband and I will write - and call - Senator Lieberman's office on Wednesday to thank him.

Sen. Dodd will also be getting calls from us... reminding him that we will be be stepping up our efforts to DUMP him in 2010 if he votes for the public option (which of course he will, despite our calls and e-mails).

Payback's a bi-@tch! Ain't it? : )

There’s zero chance McCain would vote for any of this. Zero. None.

Not McCain. Too many seniors in his state. Not Collins...she follows Snowe like a lemming. If Snowe herself should cave, watch out. Voinavich is my pick for the possible cave-ee. Though I think they will need more than one, given the number of Dems besides Lieberman who have a big problem with this.

I suppose. But I find him unpredictable in the extreme.

[americanophile]

A positive sign, but lets not count our chickens just yet. After the cloture vote we’ll know who to thank and who to unseat.

Joe, come back over to the light side of the force. Fight the dark side’s pull, Joe. Come on. Choose the light.

I knew Lieberman was a hawk on the WOT but I didn’t expect this.

I assumed that he’d be a vote for a public option.

He must be still be mad as hell at his Democrat colleagues for backing Ned Lamont back in 2006.

And at Al Gore for backing Howard Dean in ‘04.
