Obama Privately Rebuked Lieberman For Half-Heartedly Denying False Muslim Rumors
Newsweek gets some detail on what Obama told Joe Lieberman in that confrontation on the Senate floor last week...
In a brief but animated Senate floor confrontation last week, according to a campaign aide who asked for anonymity when talking about private discussions, Obama told Lieberman he was surprised by Lieberman's personal attacks and his half-hearted denials of the false rumors that Obama is a Muslim.
There's also this:
McCain spokeswoman Jill Hazelbaker says Lieberman "played a key role in reaching out to the Jewish community in the primary ... and you can expect that will continue."
Translation: Lieberman will continue cranking out the slime from now until Election Day 2008, and perhaps beyond, though at that point he may well be doing it from the minority side of the aisle...
