This does not matter.

To Joe, after the election he wont need the Democrats.

The only thing he may care about (but I doubt it) would be removing him now.

Lieberman knows his political career is over if Obama wins the White House, which is why he's in so deep with the McCain Camp. He'll probably get to pick his cabinet post should McCain win, if Obama wins, he'll be marginalized to the point where the one high ranking Senator will be left with nothing. And then in four years time he loses his seat to Lamont in Connecticut.

Well Soetoro missed his chance at roundball diplomacy:

Meanwhile, at the Olympics in Beijing, Georgia and Russia clashed in competition for the first time. Georgia rallied to beat Russia in beach volleyball, two sets to one.

"Russia and Georgia are actually friends. People are friends," said the Georgian beach volleyball team leader, Levan Akhtulediani.

The Democrats have no self-respect. They should have kicked him out months ago. It's not like they needed his help to cave on FISA, war funding, etc.

Joe knows this already. That's why he has no reason not to go scorched earth. Some sort of position in the McCain administration is his best option now.

They never needed him. They should have offered Olympia Snowe anything she wanted to flip to Independent. Instead Harry Reid and the rest of Club Stupid gave Joe Lieberman a standing ovation when he returned to the Senate -- after having pissed all over Connecticut Democrats.

Big, big suprise that he's pissing all over national Democrats now. NOT.

In 85 days, Mentum sleeps with the fishes

I would dump that pathetic back stabber right now. Why wait. Sheesh, he has said he wants to be on the ticket with McCain!

Does this mean he is not a Democrat?

Dump the putz.

Pelosi wants to talk tough now? i wonder if Cindy Sheann's garnering of enough signatures placing her on the ballot against Pelosi in San Fran has anything to do with Nancy's new found toughness?

... openly saying Joe Lieberman should pay for his betrayal ...

What she said was it will be interesting to see what the Senate leadership does when they don't need Joe's vote.

The story is good enough without your having to juice it.

Let's not be too rash trying to push Joe out of the Democratic Senate set-up just yet -- unless you want to see Congress come back and have the Senate confirm all of Bush's super-neo-con Judges for instance -- something Reid can prevent so long as he holds the leadership. As things stand now, Reid isn't going to confirm any of them, leaving the way open for a hoped for Obama administration to nominate decent judges. Reid is not going to allow a recess so that Bush can do recess appointments. Push out Lieberman, and this is what you would get. Wait till next year and between 55 and 60 Democrats in the Senate, and Joe has no leverage.

The notion that we need Lieberman to keep our all important majority in the Senate just shows more party cowardice. What has our Senate majority produced so far? What will Reid and Pelosi say after McCain wins the presidency with key help from Lieberman?

I've been fighting off the conclusion that the Democratic party will continue to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory until most of the party incumbents are OUT. We, as voters, need to stop threatening consequences that falls on deaf ears. We must SHOW them we are serious by voting these incumbents out.

Joe "ZELL" Lieberman. WHAT NEXT from this tool..er...uh...I mean fool.

What has John McCain promised Joe "ZELL" Lieberman, if he happens to become President? Attacking Iran, more economic or military aid to Israel at the expense of The Middle Class in America, the VP slot, or God forbid, Secretary of Defense in a McCain administration? God only knows.

As far as "Zell" Lieberman is concerned we can only hope that the senate ends up with 61 DEMOCRATS after this election, maybe then he will be able to be ignored and relieved of ALL committee responsibility. Because, it seems to me that he's spending a lot more time backing up McCain and correcting McCain mistakes, than he is being a Senator, and unless I missed something he's not running for President.

As a matter of fact, I make a motion that henceforth he be referred to as "ZELL LIEBERMAN", and even that might be too generous. He has turned his back on his country (USA?), his party and the people of the American Middle Class.

lieberman is a true patriot. of israel. he has endangered his own political career to uphold his inner beliefs. the belief that israel should be encouraged to persecute palestinians. the belief that the united states should join israel as an occupier of arab land. barack obama makes lieberman and militant zionists nervous. he spoke against the war in iraq. he proposes a timetable for departure. he has a muslim name. he has/had an angry pastor who questions americam militarism. john mccain on the other hand seems intent on matching still president bush's bellicosity. lieberman an israeli patriot is true to his convictions.

zell miller has no convictions other than his reelection. remember he was appointed to his first term. in 2004 he read the polls in the confedracy and said "me rather be a republican now". lieberman is different. he has risked everything to satisfy his personal racist hatred of arabs and persians. he did not choose to leave the party. he was kicked out. he will very likely lose his senate seat in time. i am sure he will do fine as an apac lobbyist.
