Lieberman to Stump for McCain

I will celebrate the day when Joe Lieberman can no longer caucas with Democrats. The only reason Lieberman has power is by holding the Dems ransom and obstructing the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. Lieberman's refusal to hold hearings on FEMA's and Homeland Security's handling of Katrina is a digrace.


"We don't want to play ‘gotcha' anymore" and that "looking back… would be a waste of Congress' time."


Senator, it is called oversight, which is Congress's responsibility in the Constitution. It is called checks and balances.

Lieberman is coming to Florida to campaign for John McCain.


Eight years after campaigning in Florida as a Democratic virtual favorite son, Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman is expected to campaign in the Sunshine State this month for Republican John McCain’s presidential bid, a source close to the McCain campaign says.


Details haven’t been announced, but Lieberman visits to Palm Beach and Broward counties are expected.


This is the same Lieberman that was endorsed by Republican Congressman Chris Shays. President Bush refused to endorse Lieberman's Republican Senate opponent Alan Schlesinger.


"We are not making any endorsement in Connecticut. The Republican party of Connecticut has suggested that we not make an endorsement in that race and so we're not," said White House spokesman Tony Snow.


Like Democrats Zell Miller and John Breaux, Lieberman can hold both parties hostage because of a razor thin majority. Miller is a former segregation. The New Republic's Jon Chait described Breaux as a "repellent sleazebag." Pls like this is why I don't support a Unity ticket.
