Can we finally strip Lieberman of his chairmanship now? Once again the DFHs (especially Ned Lamont) were right and the so-called political pundits were wrong. I’m not holding my breath waiting for the establishment to apologize for their support of Lieberman. Will Lieberman apologize to the people of Connecticut for lying to them about how he would vote?
Sounding more like an independent than a Democrat, Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., tells ABC News he will campaign for some Republican candidates during the 2010 midterm elections and may not seek the Democratic Senate nomination when he runs for re-election in 2012.
“I probably will support some Republican candidates for Congress or Senate in the election in 2010. I’m going to call them as I see them,” Lieberman said in an ABC News “Subway Series” interview aboard the U.S. Capitol Subway System.
Lieberman infuriated fellow Democrats in 2008 by supporting Republican presidential nominee John McCain as well as congressional candidates Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, and Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y.
Lieberman knows that he can’t win the Democratic nomination in 2012. I don’t know why he thinks he can win as a Republican but I guess his ego is as big as Arlen Specter’s so he thinks that Connecticut can’t live without him in the Senate.
