The Ever Sniveling Lieberman -- Will He Or Won't He?

[hgc]

Most of our attention for 2012 is focused on the pres race, but let's not forget that a certain "Independent Democrat" from Connecticut has his seat coming up next year, and he has a decision to make. He is wildly unpopular at home, especially with his own party.

So, with Democrat(s) starting to line up for the race, he's going to announce tomorrow whether or not he'll run for re-election, whether as an indy or Dem, etc.

I think he will run again as an independent, but then again, I'm pretty bad at these kind of predictions. I didn't think he would run as an independent last time.

 

[Spindrift]

I was wrong as usual. Lieberman is not running.

What? You got advance word? That ruins the poll!

He's one cell phone picture of a grey penis from being the Brett Favre of the Senate.

Sir:

Having met Senator J. Lieberman in person, I will say this.

He may not be evil.

He is a bit sniveling.

Par for the course, career politician wise.

Sounds pretty solid.

Not having any common sense, Snivelling Joe will probably run as an independant again and get his ass handed to him. The independent voters and Dems will have long since realized that his seniority is worthless to their cause and that he lets his ego get in the way of good legislation.

If the GOP nominee is a teatard, the few rermaining sane Republicans will vote for him as a protest vote. He will lose by a less embarrassing landslide.

If a rational Republican somehow gets on the ticket for the general elections, the teatards will probably vote for Joe to thank him for screwing up the healthcare debate.

It will take the most skilled and experienced avalanche rescue team in the world to save his political career.

 

[Mooseman]

He was and is toast in Ct. He knew and is calling it a career.

Goodbye, Lieberman. Ya dick.

 

[hgc]

Goodbye, Lieberman. Ya dick.

Not yet. There's 2 years to go.

Question: In those 2 years, will we see more of the Repeal DADT Lieberman or the Vote McCain/Palin Lieberman?

The worst thing about this is that we are going to have to endure another Linda McMahon run. She's like Christine O'Donnell with lots of her own money. She will keep running and running. McMahon will outspend any Republican and get the nomination. However her money didn't buy her a Senate seat last time and hopefully the result will be the same in 2012.

Wow. She didn't even come close last time. It's amazing to think she'd keep trying. Color me skeptical.

Nate Silver at the New York Times' "FiveThirtyEight" blog is still looking at election forecasts, even though November is two months behind us. Yesterday he took a look at elections after Lieberman and Conrad:

When the sniveling Lieberman got word of hgc running a poll about his political future he announced his retirement just to spite hgc (in a very sniveling way).

Take that!

Thank you. You have confirmed my suspicion that, though the ever sniveling Lieberman has never heard of "hgc", he has made it his mission to spite and annoy me.
