CNN

I find it incredibly ironic that a man who abandoned the democratic party after he couldn't win his party and state's senate race, who now cloaks his republican leanings in the guise of "independent" can have any sort of clear judgement on what is and what is not political courage.

he is nothing, he should be talking about obama.

Joe Lieberman – Republican who thinks he's an Independent Democrat. Does anyone really know where he stands? And this guy is criticizing Obama? After listening to Obama's Iowa speech, I think Obama knows exactly where he wants to go.

JFK backed a coup of Iraq using US intelligence to back Saddam Hussein's baathe party. How many Democrats remember that?

Lieberman is right on. Obama wants to bring about absolute socialism and equality, regardless of whether an individual earns it. Working hard will become meaningless as he is happy to fund programs to replace income for the laziest segment of the population. And to top it off, as he tries to "protect" groups that elect to put themselves in the situation they are in, he will fail to protect those that have absolutely no choice and are silently murdered every day...unborn children.

People who post "Hillary or Mccain" are republicans, or should be. Hillary is for withdrawing from Iraq and so is Barack. Haven't you been paying attention? God, you people are complete idiots. Joe Lieberman ran with Al Gore and is supporting John Mcsame. It is disgusting and shameful. NO DEMOCRAT worth his weight in salt would vote for McCain. You idiots should regester as republicans because you are all a bunch of fools! We don't want you and we don't need you.

Obama-Hagel 08
Change we can believe in.

Jomentum,

It's a matter of perspective. To far to the left of what? The extreme right?

Maybe it's not the democrats who have moved, or maybe they've moved closer to the center, and republicans are heading off the deep end.

And please, Obama, whether you want him to be president or not, is far more like JFK. Barack isn't even partisan, let alone hyper-partisan.

Oh please who is he???
is he even for real???

I mean, talk about someone so out of touch.. with reality, the voters, the world, life itself..
joing billary club.. free membership as long as you can say something racist, divisive or something like sniper fire in bosnia or some other lie

Lieberman and McSame – the greaters Jokers in the world !!!

Anyone that thinks McCain will be a Bush third term is just an uneducated bafoon. Your brain has been washed. McCain is very different and will be our best president since Reagan. As bad as Bush has been the Democrats lost to him twice. Their only chance of winning is to make him look like Bush. This a sad statement for the future of the Democratic party. They are torn over two people who cannot beat McCain. This hurts me to write this since I have been a loyal Democrat for thirty years. No more! In ten years they will be the third party in this country.

Dear Mr. Lieberman,
Isn't John McCain the one who gives a speech and gets confused as to whom is the real "enemy" in the middle east, and YOU had to whisper in his ear the name of the actual "enemy"? My jaw is still on the floor since that incident, he wants to bunch everyone in that region together under "enemy", it was sad to hear him speak that day.

Joe lieberman is the worse, and Hillary Clinton will copy his every move once she drops of the race, she wiil try and run as a independent, this woman is as republican as Lieberman. Hillary is a evil woman

Lots of Democrats on CNN obviously, based on verocity of the responses.....probably a lot of members from MoveOn.org writing back. As a moderate Republican, I would need to see that Obama will not pander to the extreme left, i.e. 911 conspiracy theorists, Code Pink, the city of Berkeley with the Marine recruiting center. These groups are out of touch and people will need to see that Obama is a centrist, not because he says he is, but by his actions.

Barack Obama is not just going along with the lefty activist wing, he's the big feather in their cap. He's also the reason I will be voting Republican for the first time in 30 + years unless by some stroke of luck Clinton takes his place. There's so much radicalism in the democratic party it is unrecognizable.

My husband and I have said all along that Obama is the DNC radical left wing's puppet and that's exactly why Clinton has been treated so poorly. She's her own gal and will run this country so much better than he ever could. If not Clinton, then McCain 08

Didn't Joe Leiberman win his last term by losing in the Connecticut's Senatorial Primary, and then depsite the vote, still run as an Independent??

And now he's siding with the Republicans??

If ever there was a flip to McCain's flop!!!

I just can't vote for McCain – if Hillary supporters like him so much, there must be something wrong with him.

I'm voting Obama.

He spoke the truth and after reading all these responses, the old saying is true...THE TRUTH HURTS! Way to go Leiberman.

At least Lieberman and McCain stand up to defend their convicitions. I want a President who can do that, not one that has a record of voting for nothing and the only stance he has taken is "present." Be it right or wrong, agreeable or disagreeable, at least Lieberman, McCain and Hillary have all defended their convictions because they have them. They don't need a 24 to 48 hour time frame to have their writers create a speech. Speeches are not the answers and I hope the American People will WAKE UP and see that!

I used to have a respect for Lieberman, but now see only idiocy in this man. Besides him, McCain and Clinton behave so childishly - how come Clinton make us rules that work for her? Anyhow, I am not sure if this nation has a bright future, if these people are "experienced" enough for the presidency...

AMERICA IS BIAS AGAINST A WOMAN PRESIDENT. THEIR GOOD ENOUGH TO COOK FOR A MAN,SUPPORT A MAN,GIVE THE MAN THE PLEASURES THEY WANT,BABY THEM WHEN THEIR SICK,GIVE THEM KIDS ,BUT NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO BE A LEADER. THEY RATHER HAVE A AFRICAN AMERICAN THATS HAS NO QUALIFICATIOS, TRACK RECORD OF DOING ANYTHING FOR US AND THIS COUNTRY. HRC HAS BEEN THERE TIME AFTER TIME FOR US.OBAMA IS JUST A SLICK CON MAN ,THATS WHY HE RAISES SO MUCH MONEY FROM THE YOUNG. HE CAN HUSTLE THE LOST MINDED YOUTH ,BUT NOT THE WISE ADULTS. THIS RACE HAS BEEN FIXED FROM THE BEGINING. WITHOUT HRC ,O.B. HASN'T GOT A CHANCE IN NOV. US UNEDUCATED AND OTHER CHOICE WORDS FROM THE CLINTON HATERS(O.B. SUPPORTERSWILL HAVE A RUDE AWAKINIG. YOU THE MEDIA, PRESS AND DNC HAS DONE NOTHING BUT TRASH THE CLINTONS, AND HER SUPPORTERS. WE WILL GET THE LAST LAUGH IN NOV. MC CAIN IS LOOKIG BETTER EVERYDAY.

You disagree with McCain's economic policies, and that's the most important issue to Americans. They are to much to the left, old minds think the same. It is time for change, the old school is done

Obama

David Smith writes, "Obama is a coalition builder."

He is? Judging from the state of the Democratic primary process, I beg to differ. The only 'coalition' he's managed to build is between African-Americans and leftist-minded elitists. Meanwhile a good 1/3 or more of the Clinton voters are saying point-blank they'll never vote for the guy (either choosing to stay home or vote McCain).

That's a lousy coalition – even if you're willing to call it a coalition. Obama's gonna get his backside handed to him this fall.

Reading some of these postings makes me want to laugh and scream all at the same time. Evidently, some of you don't realize that Lieberman was re-elected by people in his own state. The chosen DNC candidate lost. And some of you seem to think that if you don't drop to your knees at the mention of Obama's name, that makes you a Neo-Con. Please. Get a life. Do you think your vitriol adds to the political discourse in this country? Do you really? Some of us would prefer an INDEPENDENT candidate, because neither Obama or McCain or the parties they represent are the answer. They are THE PROBLEM. Democrats, that includes you as well...

It pains me he said. Lieberman has abandoned his party. He had always been a wolf in sheeps clothing anyway. His foreign policy, if it is not about twisting other nations' arms for Isreal Lieberman is against it. Period.

Why don't the people of Connecticut have a recall vote on Lieberman? I do not see where he has the interest of the American People or the people of Connecticut as his first priority. I also do not see how he can call himself and independent. He looks more like McCain's lapdog.

Mildly put Joe Lieberman is a self-serving idiot. America has never been his priority. He was the main reason we lost in 2000.

2012 – Next presidential election and Hillary's senate term is up.
Which does she abandon?

come doggy doggy follow me

brown nose traitor to your party, dems don´t need this rat

Can any dems answer this question?

What got America out of the great depression?

Pls respond!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

W. – oh yeah!!!!! if you look at him that way he does remind me of JFK!!! good call

Lieberman has a lot of credibility. He is an Independent because the Democratic Party turned it's back on him for his dissent. That is just what this party needs, censure of their more experienced members. Lieberman demonstrated his courage under fire form his own party. L

Obama is obviously a brilliant man, but, POLITICALLY- what has he done? What bills did he sponsor; what committees did he lead; what political breakthroughs is he responsible for? Anyone can make promises, few can deliver.

McCain 08

If Lieberman was that good, why did the Democratic Party lose in 2000? Why did Lieberman lose in the Last Democratic nomination in his state? Lieberman, you have no face to say and do what you are doing. You have no values either, so you fit with the Republicans so well. You are one of them.

Yeah, Lieberman? And YOU'RE afraid to stand up to the Bush right wing, who have all but destroyed our standing and credibility with the rest of the world! You've got it all wrong, pal: The Democrats haven't moved further to the left over the past 20 years-YOU and the GOP have moved so far right you're way off the chart now! Why don't you just switch parties and get it over with? I will be contributing heavily to your opponent next time you're up for election!
OBAMA '08 AND '12!

traitor and an idiot who listens to such a loser...

Please take this man away somewhere, anywhere. Take Hillary with you, please!!!!!! I heard the speech she gave in FL today, My, it sounds like we are going for round 2 in FL with the votes. She is insisting she get all the popular votes and delegates in FL and MI. Sounds like Bush to me!!!!

Michelle looked great last night. I hope she gets a former White House Social Secretary to help her before she moves in the WH. She needs to look like she looked last night at ALL times. It can't be easy while on the campaign trail, and raising two kids.

Remember Cindy McCain is bringing her A game, but she has had the money, and time (over 20 years) to get ready. I want the same for Michelle–our next first lady.

Michelle Obama–08

HILLARY 08

If the most experienced nominee Hillary Clinton does not win the nomination we are doomed for another 4 years of Republican madness.

She has the over-whelming popular vote. She has the States that wins elections, she is a proven winner, not a media created fast talker with big promises and no real plans.

Obama would even lose if his running mate were JFK.

People stay away from the hype, and the first black thing and look at the candidate for what he is. A nice talking man with no solutions and who cannot fess up to who his Pastor was and is.

Dee, McCain drags Lieberman around so he can keep McCain out of trouble when he 'forgets' or 'misspeaks'.

John McCain does not speak for me, or my beliefs. I'm voting Democrat this year to send a message to the Republican Party that they need to shape out or lose my vote forever.

Wait a minute...isn't Obama the far-left wing of the Democratic party? I am missing something here.

I don't know why I get sucked in to reading this stuff. All it does is serve to frustrate me. Why can't people just respect the opinions and beliefs of others without resorting to name calling and other childish stuff? There are good republicans and good democrats and bad republicans and bad democrats. There are intelligent republicans and intelligent democrats as well as the less intelligent types. How many and what percentage lie in each category is completely subjective to the person doing the rating. I agree with some stances of both parties though the "party line" is often way oversimplified so as to make it impossible to agree wholeheartedly with anything either party puts out. I am sick of the power grabbing. It only results in candidates that nobody is comfortable voting for without reservations.

Hey Joe,

We're standing up to you, weasel! I would like to see you debate Chuck Hagel.

McCain can have you. Barack will have Chuck Hagel.

"HILLARY HAS THE POPULAR VOTE", do you have to yell? Is that the only way to get your point across? And, exactly what point are you making by saying that Obama is "anti war"? Are you saying that Hillary is "pro war"? You might want to THINK before you speak. And, by the way, she only gets the popular vote if you change all the rules to her benefit. I sure hope you don't have children, cause this is a pretty pathetic lesson you're teaching them – change the rules when you're losing.

Hillary or McCain. Those two we can trust to keep our country strong and defend our nation from our enemies. Not Obama. Why?
Because we don't trust him or his agenda. We love our country too much to turn it over to an inexperienced person with no track record of accomplishments. As president he cannot vote present. He actually has to make a decision. So we don't trust him.

HIllary or McCain.

Lieberman needs a new job

I think if Mcsame stops short Lieberman will go up his....well you get the point....I cant wait to vote for McSame in November so I could give my children things I never had....10.00 a gallon of gas...starvation...and chaos....NOTTTTTTT!

Obama....and if your a Hillary supporter and you will vote for McSame out of spite your just stupid.....oh wait isnt that the demographic she aims for???

Nothing says that Obama will be the nominee as of today and only the convention in August will decide.

Obama's family and Reverand Wright will be his donwfall.

Michelle Obama is said to have been filmed at Wright's church railing white people and calling them "WHITEY"! If this video is put out by the Republicans in the fall it will destroy him. We need to see this video now to stop what would be a catastrophy for the Democrats.

"chris (hartford, ct),

Seems his constituency is ALL the people of the State of CT, not just the nutroots of the state of CT.

Since he is still Senator, I would guess that the people like him.

Lierberman is not willing to stand up for the American people or anyone but his own interest which is the Jewish state of the American people and Israel. He is vying for McCain's Secretary of State so that he can get this country in further trouble with the Middle East politics that they are so unwilling to negotiate with us because of Israel. Lieberman is not to be trusted by the Democrats because we have seem how he goes from being a V.P. on the democratic ticket to kissing the Republicans a-es. He cannot really say anthing about Obama because at least he is trying for us to stay and sustain the world power that we have built our country on.

David Smith,

Answer me this...when has Obama EVER united anyone to accomplish anything? Your statement is in stark contrast to his voting record in the senate. Base on that, it's more accurate to day he is the antithesis of a uniter. is records show him making no decidions on anything! How is he going to bridge the gap between left and right when ALL his policies are very far left??

I have to agree with Leiberman, as much as that pains me! The hype behind obama is clearly only on the left. Those of us on the right are finding many things left to be desired by the great "uniter."

To think I used to like Lieberman.

I don't think the party has moved left, Joe has moved right.

Lieberman is an absolute tool.

Here we go again...all the Obama supporters shooting of their mouths, with really nothing new to say.

He stands behind MCBush bc like Carl rove was Bushs tiny brain

Lieberman is MCBushs *Memory*

Add one more to the count of life long Republicans voting for Obama.

Hey Lieberman, are you the one running for President? NO, then SHUT IT!!! Your the biggest of flip floppers Democrat, Republican, Independent, Republican...what next?

Obama '08 + '12

Some comments posted here are exactly the point. When a democratic leader stands up for what he believes, he is called a nut or a joke. That's why most democratic party leaders just say what people want to hear...such as 'healthcare for all!' (but never say how they will pay for it). Lieberman is liberal on almost every issue. He just happens to believe we should leave Iraq with some sense of victory and stability. There were many mistakes by Bush in Iraq. But focus should be on correcting the situation so we can leave with pride. Neither part benefits from leaving Iraq with shame. But how we leave Iraq will be important to all americans and the future of America.

I will never vote Republican again.

Republicans for Obama!!!

It all comes down to ISREAL'S protection. Sorry, Mr. Lieberman, but Isreal should be our number one priority when it comes to protecting the United States of America. Isreal can protect it's self.

McCain as JFK? Well, strip from Kennedy his respective youth, vitality, good looks, charisma, storied family, strong legacy, commitment to social change, Democratic Party allegiance, U.S. policy, foreign policy, and bipartisan, whirlwind support from young and old alike, and you are left with, indeed, an uncanny resemblance between the two gentlemen.

Sen. Joseph Lieberman why not join Republican Party and shut up! Hopefully Sen. John McCain will take you on his ticket. You do not have moral authority to critisize Sen. Obama given all the false attack you have launched against Sen. Obama before. It was so low of you to try to utilize the respect you enjoy within Jewish community to justify the pandering and smearing attack which Pres. Bush and Sen. McCain launched against Sen Obama last week. You know that it is wrong, but being the opportunist you are, you couldn't resist the temptation to join the chorus! The willingness to use diplomatic instrument more to solve more of the global problems has nothing to do with "appeasement" of terrorists! I tell you what appeasement is: Sen. McCain's support to giving those who have killed many American Soldiers Iraq millions of dollars each month, as part of "surge" tactics. I challenge you to offer similar amount to Hamas, and they will not send rockets to Israel again! But of course, it is a temporary solution like in Iraq. It is only through diplomacy like it was done with USSR, China, etc that would bring a long lasting solution. Talking to ones enemies/"axis of evil"! So what is your problem, or your are just playing same old Washington politics???

THE SAME OLD FEAR PROPAGANDA. MCCAIN IS PART OF THE PROBLEM OF SENDING AMERICA TO HELL AND BACK IN A HAND BASKET. WE CANNOT LIVE IN FEAR THAT'S CREATED BECAUSE WE REFUSE TO USE DIPLOMACY WITH ENEMIES, WE ARE NO SAFER BY NOT TALKING TO OUR ENEMIES. JOHN MCCAIN NEEDS TO STOP HIS HEROISM AND COWBOY MENTALLITY BECAUSE IN THE FIRST PLACE HE IS TOO OLD TO CONTINUE MAKING ENEMIES HE NEEDS TO BE MAKING PEACE WITH HIMSELF.

Obama first Affirmatinve Action Pres?

Come on Supers. You have a reason for being called Supers.

you were put in place so the dems wouldn't nominate another Carter or Mondale, etc. Show some courage go for Hillary.

Oh, I know, you are afraid of riots in Denver. Well, the dems have done alot worse to the blacks.

On second thought, go for Ob.
McCain 08

Kick Joe out of the Democratic Party! No Joe!!!

Lieberman is a cronic whiner. Good riddance from the democratic party.
Soon enough it will be good riddance from national politics.

Who cares what Lieberman has to say, the votes are in, If Obama can face the Clinton's he can face anything that anyone can throw at him, please dont take his kindness for weakness, he is a gracious person. Because he does not come out and attack like Evil Clinton or Shutem-up Bush does not mean he will not stand up against left wingers or anyone.

What a hoot: 'When Victory didn't come quickly in Iraq'.....

There is no victory in Iraq.

I like seeing Lieberman with McCain, it makes things much clearer.

I was supporting McCain until all the Hillary people started coming over. Now I've taken a good look at John McCain, and those people are right. He's just too liberal.

I'll be voting Democrat to teach the Republicans a lesson.

why do hillary supporters always write in all caps?

Sadly, Joe Lieberman is reminding me more and more of another Democrat who went off the deep end a few years ago and turned on his party - Zell Miller.

A spiteful vindictive traitor, the 21th centuries Benedict Arnold. A divider and a conqueror who wouldn't know patroitism if it slapped him in the face. He was rejected by the democrats in his home state and he is repaying republicans for re-electing him. A man with a party and soon without friends, in a word a fool.

Hillary just made a very good speach to the people of Florida. Florida votes should count because every candidates's name was on the ballots. COUNT FLORIDA'S VOTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lieberman the democratic traitor!!!!!

Sorry I have no respect for anyone who would rather drop bombs on their fellow man than strive for diplomacy and peace
Down with the warmongers!!!!

Obama 08

Lieberman is loved in old aged homes in Florida,I wonder why?

HILLARY HAD A BIG WIN LAST NIGHT!

GOOD FOR HER!!!!!!

WHY HASN'T OBAMA STOLEN ALL THESE STATES?

THE PEOPLE DO NOT TRUST HIM!!!

THAT WILL NOT CHANGE! THE GOP WILL BRING OUT ALL OF HIS DIRT AND THERE IS PLENTY!

SO DO YOU REALLY WANT A DEMOCRAT THAT CAN WIN?

HILLARY CLINTON IS THE ANSWER!!!!!!!

Lieberman is wright !!!!

Obama is way to the left . In fact so far left many dems will not fallow him. To say I will just talk to people that kill for fun, (terrorists ) is so bumb.

When will dems under stand that all terrorists know is guns, bombs and killing.

the rest of the world is not like America. The things we take for granted are not so in the rest of the world.

i hope he shot up,judas of the democratic party,he only cares about politicians who says they will use nuclear weapon to defend isreal,well we need wise men to settle critical issues

HAHAHAHAHA Lieberman sounds "bitter".

Lieberman's an idiot. I'm a Republican and I know as much. While I don't like liberal ideals, I still don't like politicians who can't cut a straight path through the truth. So that pretty much means I don't like politicians, period. It seems you can't be a polician these days without cutting your conscience and morals out of the decision making process.

People who cling to power for all the wrong reasons make me sick. Hillary Clinton is the worst of them.

All that said, I must still vote for McCain (over Obama) if for no other reason than McCain will strengthen the conservative slant of the supreme court.

I say no to the liberal's thirst for irresponsible abortions, gay marriage, more rights for criminals, affirmative action (which IS reverse discrimination), more rights for terrorists, more illegal immigrants, less border security, getting in bed with hostile nations, moving closer to becoming a Godless nation, and everything else they bring to the table with their own special set of interrest groups, lobbyists, tax and spend socialistic reforms, and just as much corruption as the Republicans.

The Republicans have let me down time after time. I can;t in good conscience pull the lever for McCain this year.

Guess Obama gets my vote.

Joe Lieberman, the biggest wimp in politics is talking about standing up? This man needs to make up his mind where his allegiances are,
America or Israel. Why has this moron been such a war hawk I ask you? Think about it.

Idiot Lieberman.
Obama does not want to stand up to the left wing.
They are democrats and he is willing to listen to all democrats, republicans, independents.
He does not have to stand up to the people, the people stand up FOR him.

I'm not that fond of Lieberman so anything he says doesn't carry much weight. He'd be a perfect choice for McCain for VP, though. Two peas in a pod.

Obama wasn't in the Senate when it was the time to vote whether a Senator would authorize the use of force. It's very convenient to say he was against the war from the start.
The president came to Congress with information "confirming" that there was a direct threat to the US and asked for the authority to go to war. A bipartisan group united after 911 to allow such authority – and OBAMA WASN'T THERE YET!
The was is what it is now and each of the 3 candidates are going to have to deal with the same mess.
Obama is not going to be able to end the war any faster than the others - he's going to have to listen to the generals, joint chiefs of staffs...

Formerly proud Republican voting Democrat for the first time this year.

Joe Schmo...

You are such a coward. I am so glad the Democratic Party has rid itself of you for good. I can only hope the good people of Connecticut will do the same next time around.

Lieberman is a Zionist who puts the Israeli lobby ahead the good of the United States.

Call to quorum.....
The Senator from Illinois how do you vote?

(oh jeeezzz now what do I do?).....ummmmmmmmm....PRESENT!!

Any other questions?

What a complete joke this guy is. He should really be ashamed of himself, and the good people of connecticut should yank him out of office. Has he decided if he is a dem, indy,or repub yet. Complete moronic joke of a senator.... looks like a total suck up.

OBAMA/HAGEL vs MR MAGOO/ELMER FUDD (Lieberman)

OBAMA not man enough to stand up for anything. We kick him out of Al Qaeda 'cause he denounce he is a Muslim jus to get White House. Dem Americans crazy. Shore glad he gonna be Presidente 'cause we hate America and he and Gorilla Mouth Michelle will help us to doom America. Thanks Obama you make it easy for me taking care of America. "I KILL DEM!"

Lieberman: Closet Republican.

Whats with failed democrat VP candidates comming out and making total fools of themselves?

This is coming from a man who lost as VP?Boy he has a lot of experience.

I was one of those foolish people that voted for Bush twice. There is no way I'll be voting for McCain.

Republicans for Obama '08

This claim that Obama is a coalition builder is unsupported by his history in the Senate. He has scored a rating as the most liberal member of the US Senate and has not yet reached across the isle on any issue of significance. So he can clainm to be a coalition builder, but actions speak louder than words. And while we're on the subject, can anybody list any significant legislative and/or leadership accomplishments that Obama can point to while serving in the US Senate? Interesting that we never have been given any examples of his coalition-building leadership.

This is all about Lieberman and his feeling of rejection by Democrats in Connecticut. What a ruthless ego.

Can we trade Hagel for Lieberman straight up, or do we have to throw in a Congressman to be named later?

And this coming from a guy who bounces from party to party like a Ping Pong ball. Can anyone say political opportunist? He is not to be taken seriously whatsoever.

I'm happy to say that I got to vote against Lieberman twice during his last election. Hard to take him seriously for criticizing Obama for 'failing to stand up' to a party that he left when his own constituency overwhelmingly let him know it didn't want him. Sour grapes much, Joe?

Joe Lieberman is so irrevelant that it is pointless to discuss him. This is the same Joe who did not bring anything to the Al Gore campaign, and consistently shows that he has no integrity at all. He and McCain are a couple made for each other. Go away Joe.

WOW.... was JKF a republican? Did he champion any of the republican’s agenda or ideological ideal? Your guess is as good as mine. There is no doubt in my mind that Sen. Lieberman will continue to fade in a state of political irrelevance. He is just pandering politics of convenience and we all can see through it.

Mr. Lieberman, why don't you, Mcsame and Billary all move to Antartica together. P.S. Don't call us, we'll call you.

America is hungry for a president we can believe in, and that person is Barack Obama. We have been spoonfed with lies for 8 years, by GW, Cheney and Rove, and now we are fed up. We want a truthful, honest person who will treat all Americans the same-whites, hispanics, blacks, asians, american indians, everybody. There is only one person running who will do that and that is Barack.

The Karl Rove sneaky tactics are almost over–I can feel it.

O/08

Lieberman= zero credibility

What is with Lieberman? Does anybody know what he wants from all his effort to defend and protect McCain? Anybody????????

OH YEA SEN.OBAMA LET YOU LEFTIES GET AWAY

WITH THE COMMENTS YOUR FRIEND MADE IN ISRAEL.

ALL OF YOU STILL BE CHEWING ON IT FOR MONTHS TO COME.

Nancy from FL!! (from the last blog)

How dare you call Obama DNC pets "monkey" because Hillary lost. and go die you racist fool. Get used to it and live it till you LOVE IT because Obama will be the President of this country. I've had it with Hillarys supporters, you all can go to HELL and stay there. No more playing nice and be sure that NO WOMAN will be president for at least another 100 years after Hillarys debacle.

Well, at least Obama isn't willing to let our children die in pointless wars - have us pay $10.00 a gallon at the pumps - and overturn a woman's right to choose.

"Show us your "O" face in November: Obama 2008

"John McCain doesn't have an "O" face"

Why should we care this joker Lieberman or Olberman.

Lieberman is not credible because he has been pushing the most ill-defined war against Iraq from the get-go. He has no shame!

A true service Hero VS a true zero. Not a hard choice come Nov.

Lieberman is correct. The Democratic party has moved too far left. Obama is not a "coalition builder," in fact he is more to the left than Hillary. Look at his voting record. The far left wing minority Obama represents will only hurt our country in the end.

The Republican Party has lost my vote. Me and everyone I know are voting for Barack Obama.

Scorned lover syndrome if you ask me.

I think Obama supporters are missing part of the premise here that Obama does not have the cojoles to stand up to what might not be popular. I am a democrat, but I have no confidence in Obama – I just don't think he is the right person to lead this country, esp. considering the current dire straits. Now I realize that he will likely be the dem. nominee, I just hope the dems. choose a VP who is tough in his or her convictions.

No sooner did Lieberman lose the last election–riding on the support of millions of Democrats and their donations–than he turned his back on the party for his own gains. He is the most self serving man in Washington, and the greatest turn coat. Why should the American people vote for a man who spent eight years crawling into GW's lap?

Opinions, Opinions, Opinions.... when and where will it end? Everyone has one, but not many are willing to stand up and state for the good of the Country, and for THE AMERICAN PEOPLE this is my decision. It's all about the American People, not about the superdelegates, members of the House or Senate nor is it about the Candidates. This is about us people, dont you get it.
As a Retired 56 yr old US Army man, my choice as I see it for the good of the Country and for THE AMERICAN PEOPLE is Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton who ever wins the nomination (and I might add I dont like the Clintons that much but they are a far better choice then the Republican John McCain or any other party).

Connecticut voters how could you send a sore loser to the senate. He would like to be on ticket with McCain so he is kissing up to him every possible way. I guess he just want to be McCain's poddle.

Barack needs about 63 more superdelegates. That's what I want to talk about–where are they? I can't wait to have the general campaign get started.

I'm for the only candidate who will fight for the American people and that is Barack Obama.

By the way, Joe, it's the neo-con Bush Administration that has gone off the deep end to the right, not the Democrats to the left.

McCain is already promising to be Bush light, same basic policies with apologies; not realizing that the reason the Bush Administration refuses to apologize for mistakes is that it would take up all their time. Come to think of it, that would leave a lot less time to screw us up and further.

Mr. Lieberman follows the republican like a dog.im not surprise he is willing to say anything for his master.

Hillary is in Florida making fool of herself on national television. The
DNC is not going to break the rules that Hillary refused to follow, just
to help her cheat herself into the nomination. They should put a stop to
her blasphemy and attempted destruction of the party. I would rather
have Florida just sit out this election and let Joe Lieberman lecture them
on the rules of the democratic party. His time would be better served.

Why does he keep talking? Why is McCain dragging him around like his lap dog?

I don't get it.

OBAMA KNOWS NOTHING OF THIS PROCESS! HE IS AN ULTRA LIBERAL AND ANTI WAR!!!

HE WILL NEVER HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE OR EXPERIENCE OF HILLARY OR McCAIN!!!!!!

HILLARY IS SPEAKING IN BOCA RATON AND BOY IS SHE SMART AND CHARISMATIC!

THIS WOMAN HAS A WONDERFUL PLAN FOR THIS COUNTRY!!!!!!

SHE WAS A BIG WINNER LAST NIGHT, MUCH LIKE WEST VIRGINIA

OBAMA WILL NOT WIN THE STATES THAT HILLARY HAS, AND WILL LOSE IN NOVEMBER!!!

HILLARY SHOULD BE THE NOMINEE!!!!!!!.

I am no longer proud to be a Democrat. I am ashamed of the Democratic Party for disrespecting Senator Clinton. I no longer trust and respect Jimmy Carter or John Edwards for turning their back on Hillary Clinton. John Edwards could have waited until after June 3 to endorse Obama but he had to jump in to try to push Hillary out of the race and that was wrong of him. Hillary is the best qualified presidential nominee. In November, experience will matter to most people; therefore, she should be the nominee to compete with McCain.

Lieberman is the biggest flip flopper of all time. I am certain CT will rightly send him on his way next election cycle. He' s in it for himself, not the American people.

Joe Lieberman is acting like McCain's shadow. Isn't he still a senator? When does he find time to perform actual senatorial work? He's always tagging along after McCain. He must want to be VP really bad. I don't like him.

Joe Leiberman is a senator in search of relevance. Our party disenfranchised him and he became an independant. Much to the chagrin of us all, he won re-election. Joe. No matter how much you kiss McCain's behind you will not be his VP.

Joe Lieberman is quite the character, huh?! Let's be real. He's only there to try to scare more Jewish Americans away from Obama so that McCain can win Florida. It's also pretty apparent that he's bitter that he was defeated in the Senate run-off election in his state and was forced to run as an independent. Let go of your grudge, Joe. Let it go. You'll have peace if you do. Promise.

By the way, for those mentioning Lieberman as a potential VP for McCain... Doubt it. Two gray-haired men on a ticket?? That's not likely.

Obama is not willing to stand up for anything. He will definitely be a weak leader.

Why doesn't Obama tell the 90% of African-American that vote for him,

to not be such Racist, and that if they continue to do so, he does not want

their racist votes...

Imagine Obama, who prevented Floridians votes to be counted, now has the nerve to go to that state and ask them for a political donation! LOL

THE ONLY TRUE LEGITIMATE LEADER WILL BE H.R. CLINTON

AND ALL THE IMPORTANT STATES FOR THE DEMOCRATICS IN

THE GENERAL ELECTION SUPPORT AND WANT HER TO BE THE

NEXT PRESIDENT...

WE SUPPORT H.R. CLINTON, WHO HAPPENS TO BE A DEMOCRAT, IF SHE WERE TO BECOME AN INDEPENDENT, WE HER STAUNCH SUPPORTERS WOULD BACK HER UP, YES RIGHT UP TO THE WHITE HOUSE... 2009-2012

needs to go play in traffic and then hide under a rock.

Lieberman = traitor

Thank God we kicked this loser out of the Democratic party!

Your reap what you sow Democrats. Really self-serving of the Democratic party to say we'll unite for the good of the party. If you want a United (50) States of America. Dems don't ask what you can do for the party, ask what you can do in Florida and Michigan..........Revote.
Only 48 state primary will not serve the party or the country. United you will stand>>>>>>>>>>>>.

David Smith,

Please give me ONE instance of OBAMA being a "coalition builder"...

*crickets*

SLIME & SLEAZY ON THE TOWN.

THESE TWO LEAVE A TRAIL OF SLEAZE

LIKE THOSE SNAILS IN THE GARDEN.

whoever run againest Mr. Lieberman he will have my 100.00 dollars

Lieberman is 100% correct.

When the republican party, led by GWB, took this party drastically to the right. WE the party of the people (democratic party) had the opportunity to move a little more to the center and COMPLETELY alienate the republican party and take a SOLID majority.

So what does our party do?

After the republicans move far right, we move far left? Just unbelievable.

LIEBERMAN IS 100% CORRECT, AND I AM ASHAMED OF OUR PARTY!

Is Lieberman traveling around with Senator McCain now as the rectifier? In case Senator McCain says the wrong thing again so that he can whisper the correct answer in his ear.

Coming from Lieberman, that's not saying much.

Any other nation in the world, and Obama is right of center.

These two are such a joke. Both ages combined are probably about 257. Who gives s flying *art about what these two fogies think. McSame and his flip flopping while illegally taking his robot looking wife Cindy's private jet on the campaign trail when everybody else PAYS for their transportation.....don't get me started. If these narrow minded fossils actually knew the facts they would keep their traps shut and go play bingo or whatever the elderly do these days......and stay out of politics.

Lieberman is a an Isaeli first before American. He just want to jump on any issue that would favore Israel and hinder Arab progress.

Lieberman...just go away.

Lieberman is vying to be the next Vice President under John McCain. John is like George, if he disagrees with something, he'll just change it. He has no patience and is not my idea of a good president because he will never listen.

Whatever America, if you want more of the same, John McSame is your man, and his yes men will tag along with him. We already have a president who begs for oil, now we'll have one who fights for it.

i'm voting fo the sensible choice, Obama.

Awesome. I'm eagerly awaiting Senator Lieberman's replies to the comments on this article.

I mean, you guys wouldn't be talking to him and telling him off if he didn't regularly read this....right?

Otherwise, I'm sure you'd have more fun outside spitting at the wind. The target of your outrage would still be completely oblivious to you, you'd still end up with your own vitriol thrown back in your face, and you'd still look like fools.

i am amazed that this man's ideas and ideals have become so distorted. He is beginning to look like a clown on the order of hammity and limbaugh

Hmmmmm - don't think I personally have moved over to the left. I'm still pretty much in the center where I've always been. I'm just a little louder in my opinion that we need a Democrat in the white house to extricate us from the mess foisted upon us by the Republicans over the last 7 years.

I have also moved away from the hatred and anger that seem so pervasive within the GOP. We dems have rarely shown that same hatred in return - and that's one reason I think those angry Hillary Supporters and Obama Haters are part of Operation Chaos. If not, they've sure taken a page from the Rush Limbaugh playbook!

Democrats, unite in November. Let's take back the white house!

This, from a guy who's unquestionably one of the most, ahem, centrist Republican Presidential candidates in recent memory.

I'm a staunch republican, but, if I weren't so concerned about how terribly far left Obama has moved, I would conisider the change. However, I don't agree with the swing to the left the dems have made – it frightens me. I don't want to live in a socialist country!

This war is not a partisan issue. You have people on all sides of the fence ready to acknowledge that it has and continues to damage our economy, military, foreign relations and political standing worldwide.

You don't have to be "far left" to see the merit in withdrawal.

The Peoples Judas... Joe Lieberman...

Who cares what he says or thinks! A nobody!

O LORD HERE WE GO AGAIN.

WORTHLESS & SCHMUCK ON THE ROAD AGAIN.

Judas, shut the hell up and focus on your dear McCain. You have NO advice or comment or suggestions to give us. They are unwelcome, get it and get used to it ? You are a loser of the worst kind.

Give me a break Senator Joe Lieberman!. Why would n't remind your friend Senator McCain that he was released from Hoa prison due to diplomacy.

Oh please! Obama stands up for what he believes is right. Hence NOT voting for this very wrong war. The idea that not standing up for what Leiberman feels is wrong means that Obama doesn't stand up for what is right is arrogant on Leiberman's part.

I'm glad he left the democrat party. We don't need any idiot like that on our side.He has his nose up Mcsames butt thinking hes goingo be the next vp. He is in for a surpise.

Why is it so wrong to question? All of you Barack backers don't want anyone to question anything. I think the reason is you won't question him. He stands for change...but name one thing that his party believes that he doesn't? If there isn't anything, and the conservatives aren't running the country since dems are running Congress, what exactly do you want to change??

Lieberman is unable to stand up for anything, Never before has there been a greater warhawk than Joe Lieberman.

He simply lied through his rotting teeth when he said he was a Democrat and would vote like a Democrat if re-elected!

Liars backing liars who support lies to start wars. This is not a goverment for the people!

Ok, the Dems can take Hagel and Republicans can have Lieberman. I would love to see a McCain-Lieberman ticket. It would be electrifying and energetic.

I would also add that the reason why Gore lost in 2000 was because he picked Lieberman.

Joe, just a few questions. Were we friends with the Russians? Were we friends with North Korea? Were we friends with Lybia? I think the Rebublican party is talking out both sides of it's mouth. Also, we still remember that McInsain said that we went to war for oil!!!!

Obama 08/12

The mouth-piece for McBUSH has spoken!!
sit down & shut up JOE!!!!

Ah, another old man shouting at a cloud.

Seriously – Lieberman isn't even a democrat, just like Hagel isn't really a republican.

Why don't they just call themselves independents? It is a little hard to believe anything they say when even their affiliation is a lie...

Lieberman is just jealous because he's not on Obama's short list!

Why don't Joe Lieberman and Geraldine Ferarro run for something together?

Maybe on the "Crazy former Veep wannabees" ticket?

Someone who switches to the wrong side is not only a traitor but a moron

Be careful Liberman you might fall out of the closet.

Can you see it – the eerie similarities between McCain and JFK?
....me neither! Lieberman should stay off the sauce.

He's a good guy, basically moderate, but becoming more of a Republican as time goes on. Guess he wants the veep spot.

Lieberman as McCain's brain is an improvement over Rove as Bush's brain, but Obama is a much better choice....and he comes with his own working brain. What a concept!

THESE TWO LOSERS NEED TO CHECK INTO A HOME

FOR THE LAME & IDIOTIC.

joe just go to israel, israel is your only interest.
I and my family are Americans of one citizenship. jews have dual -citizenship. My first priority is the U.S.
Lieberman's prority is israel. Lieberman just wants the U.S. to engage iran into a war. it aint happening joe. Obama will be President and your and the neo-cons agenda is shot down!!!!

McCain = Kennedy?

then why is Kennedy's brother, Ted Kennedy endorsing OBAMA?!!!!!

Give me a break, maybe if AL GORE had a real VP on his ticket in 2000 then he'd be President right now.

What a croc. McCain has capitulated to right wing that controls the GOP ... one example, a woman's right choose. He has gone from saying Roe should remain to advocating its reversal. Another example ... he once condemned the Religious Right ... and now seems to embrace it. I liked McCain when he really did speak out against the Right in the GOP.

McCain is easy to define you know the Straight Talk Express!

1.Your sons will get drafted for war with Iran, this how we get out of Iraq.

2.$12.00 a gallon gasoline for your Trucks and SUV’s, more wars for oil.

3.Your homes will loose 50% more of there value, that’s your dumb fault you bought it you can loose it.

4.Father of the next great Depression in America

5.If you get sick that’s your fault. No Health Care not the Governments Job.

6.Pardons Bush and Channey for lying about WMD’s and Al-Qaeda in Iraq

Lieberman... your an idiot. He used to be a dead, down the center moderate that I had originally thought was going to get my vote without question. Since the primaries began, McCain has constantly changed his views and become more and more conservative for fear that he wouldn't capture the conservative vote. He continues to support Bush, then disagree with what he says, then go back again. There is no consistency with McCain which should be something people watch out for when heading to the polls. We don't know exactly which version of McCain we are going to get. If you are going to attack Obama... at least do it with something you can create an argument for. This is just pointless rhetoric that only hurts McCain because people know the truth.

This from Mr. Limp man, Limp-from-party-to party man?
It is scary that we left our destiny in the hands of all these 'has been-stil- wanna be' men for so long. No wonger we are in this messed up state as a country.

Is it me or does Lieberman look like the Emperor from Star Wars before his face was mangled? Some chuck him down the exhaust port labeled "Irrelevant Also-rans."

first of all Lieberman needs to stand with the Democrats or Harry Reid should strip him of his high democratic leadership positions in the Senate. He should not be telling a fellow democrat how to act when lieberman himself is endorsing the Republican candidate. He has no credibility on this position.

Second McCain is as far away from Kennedy as you can be. "I know Kennedy, Kennedy was a good friend of mine and you, (John McCain), are no John Kennedy.

Third, how can this guy still believe McCain knows what hes talking about when he has pointed out McCain's recent errors to everybody in front of the press. McCain is constantly taking positions on subjects based on fantasy not fact. It is not like he does not know the facts because on many of these issues he has flip flopped after receiving the nomination.

WE CAN ALREADY SEE THAT THIS TURNCOAT IS MCCAINS BRAINS, TO COVER ALL THE GAFFS MCAIN KEEPS MAKING.

The truth is that this turncoat flip flop lieberman will be out of a job November.

Bye Joe and good riddance.

A Republican blogger put it best when he said:

"We'll trade you Hagel if you give us Liebermann."

To which I say:

It's a deal if you take Hillary Clinton too and give us a cheeseburger for her.

i know its so tempting but everyone should stop bringing up the obama talking to iran subject and if they do bring it up mention the REAL head of iran, the supreme leader, Ahmadinejad is second in command in that country and doesnt have final say on things exspecially talks with countries(the us in this case) the supreme leader has called the "incarnate of evil".

This guy has got to be the DUMBEST person I've ever seen. He is political TRASH!

Politics in this country has become a JOKE!

kennedy met with kruschev you moron!that's who was supplying missiles to cuba.what a twit to twist history so lieberman can keep america in the middle east ,fighting israel's wars,for them.he's a traitor to his party and this nation.i hope he goes down for war crimes with bush cheney mccain and the clintons.all supporters of this illegal war.

Traitor !

***************************************************************************

Joe Lieberman is just speaking his conscience. Our country would be better off if all politicians were less polarized. Lieberman is the model for reaching across party lines and working to improve the quandry that is Washington.

***************************************************************************

That is something I haven't heard of before. The warmonger's justification of belittling those who would seek peace is by calling them the "Peace at Any Price" crowd, hoping to invoke fear in what the price is, all the while ignoring the price being paid now for aggression:

American Lives, American Money, Iranian Hegemony.

This is the legacy of our policy of imperialism.

What's more hillarious is that the Peace movement is not a leftist extreme position. It's actually coming from BOTH sides. From leftists and liberal thinkers, certainly, but also from true conservatives like Ron Paul, who truly believe in limited government and non-interventionist foriegn policy.

Ultimately, we – as a nation – must put the needs of our freedoms above the government's quest for more power.

Proof of the war mongers! It won't work!

By the way – is there any thing else Mc Cain is running on?

Go Bam!

Mr. Lieberman, that is exactly my problem with the Democratic party.
The far left wing of the political spectrum has taken over the party of our parents and grandparents. It started with McGovern and now that the McGovern flower children are adults, they are more irresponsible than ever. It's almost like they never grew up. This is their last chance to establish their brand of Socialism in America.

I fought them in the 70's and I will continue to fight them come November. My country will not become another Socialist Nation.
Not on My Watch.. Semper Fi.

Vote McCain save our country from the Socialists.

And Lieberman and McCain want you to pay 12.00 a gallon for gas!

How do you go from your party's VP nominee to a shill for the other side? How does that happen....

I have never seen a politician look out for himself more than Joe.

Shameless.....

Lieberman and many off the people of his age (generation) DO NOT GET IT..

Lets look at Cuba..for 50 years we have refused to REALLY talk with their leaders. WHY?? Because they are Communist?? EXCUSE ME...I do believe China is communist as well.

If you try something for 50 YEARS and nothing changes...IT AIN'T WORKING!!!

To TALK with OTHER LEADERS without Preconditions has up till now been called NEGOTIATIONS!!! President Bush, Sen. Lieberman, and McCain want to make just MEETING with the President a REWARD. This is PURE EGO RUNNING WILD!!! and it will never work!!!

This situation with Cuba has gone on too darn long.....We need to fix it and the only way to fix it will be to change the tactics in which it is addressed.

Anytime he wants to stop looking a sore loser that would be fine.

Oh, looked who reared his ugly head...Joe LIEberman. Another tough guy who wants to bomb, bomb, bomb Iran. Are you two old fools going to start whispering things into each other ears??

I literaly want to throw up when either one of these men speak.

Yeap, two granpas yelling at the clouds. Did the clouds yell back oldies?

I hope he does get McCain's Vice President slot.

Then he will be a 2 time loser.

He will loose his next election bid.

Looks like McCain got his voice box back.The Jerusalem Post today said that Bush plans to attack Iran before his term is up.

Liebermann and Geraldine Ferraro '08

Liberman is too old to be so wreckless.

Sorry, Senator Lieberman, but, as a Republican, I have to stand with Senator Hagel on this one. Americans do know who our enemies are, and we also know that the neocons have taken over John McCain's campaign. History has proven over and over that it is in our best interest to engage our enemies with diplomacy. That is not apeasement. Obama and Hagel are correct.

Lieberman needs to stop following John McCain around like a puppy,
and face up to the fact that he is a traitor of the democratic party. It will
be a trip when McCain doesn't choose him as vice president.

Leiberman – Thank you for the Straight Talk.

First of all, it is extremely difficult to discern where McFlipFlop truly stands on any issue as many have changed to the complete opposite since 2000. That alone makes him untrustworthy as it appears his agenda is connected to political expediency.

Secondly, the notion that any politician should have to denounce and reject others' viewpoints is beyond me. Let the politician speak HIS truths and his only... that way we can focus on who he is and what he is about... he/she does not have to murky the water with others' viewpoints.

I am so pissed off we voted this guy back in as an independent. I can't believe what a fast one he pulled on the state of CT joining the republicans when he said he would sit with the democrats even though he was an independent. I feel so betrayed, I cannot WAIT until we vote him out of there!

Peace at any price sounds a lot better to me than war for the price of 4,000+ dead Americans, countless dead Iraqis, and billions of dollars while the poor in this country fall deeper into the abyss.

Their blood is on your hands, Sen. Lieberman.

Yeah, and guess who's not willing to stand up to the right wing. I'll give you a hint: his name starts with an M, ends with an n, and has "cCai" in the middle.

Obama can't stand up to anyone – he can't stand on his own two feet. He has to have promotionals pushing his candidacy such as the "Oprah Effect"; he suddenly wears a flag pin when it benefits him to do so; his wife has a life-long disrespect for this country and only feels proud of it now that her husband has become a celebrity candidate – hypocrites. Obama is as superficial as they come.

Joe, you are the reason we got Bush II. Shut up and stop trying to be McGramps running mate. You spend more time with him then Cindy

Barack Obama needs to stand up to the racists who support him. That will be many indeed, I'm afraid. Racism is not one color. Voters need to have bettter criteria than that for choosing their candidate. Qualifications and experience are at the top of that list. On the other hand, I don't see how Obama can stand up to the left of the Party. He is the left of the Party.

oops sorry for the spelling tail

Its not only true but it will also be the downfall of the Democratic Party. McCain will be our next president if Obama is the nominee.

Lieberman.....You have lost your "marbles" also!

Per Lyndon Johnson,

The real threat to our nation and to our World is the American Political
Right Wing, also known as the Military Industrial Establishment. The
left is not comprised of pro-abortion/gay/migrant/environmental mal
contents,

They simply are as compelled about thier own individual freedoms
as the Bible thumping right wing conservatives are, just not as hypocritical.

Democracy now.

No to the neocons.

No to Lieberman.

No more war for Israel.

Lieberman............part of the OLD SCHOOL in Washington, and is a Republican in all but name only. "Independent"??? Sure, yeah right.

The Dems cast him out of their party so BIG SURPRISE that he has now hooked his wagon to the GOP train. But then again, if it weren't for Lieberman whispering in McCain's ear, correcting his gaffes (or is it early onset of Alzheimer's) then how could McCain find his way around the issues??

nobody likes lieberman,anymore ,because he has become a right wing zealot.hillary is playing the sex card,now,big time.i wish lieb. would take hillary and mccain and leave our country.they are not patriotic.

Hey Joe,

Obama is willing to stand up for everyone, not turn tale and run to a party that degraded you less than 8 years ago.

Who whispered this nonsense in his ear while he was standing behind McCain?

This man needs some serious help. Why exactly does he stand behind McCain all the time? I have never really seen anything like that before in politics.

Lieberman who? Wasn't he the weak link in the 2000 prez race? Give me a break! Go ahead and jump on the other side of the fence, which is where he wants to be anyway. Don't use the politics of this race as an excuse!

keep linking mcshame to bush.

We have on the one hand a naive presidential hopeful who promises change, while on the other we have an experienced heroic statesman with a proven record of change. Am I missing something?

Americans for McCain '08

it is amazing to me the number of mccain friends and staffers who are upset with his convenenient new love of the FAILED bush administration! this tells us what most of us already knew. mccain cannot be trusted as his views change whenever it benefits his candidacies.

GO mckinnon and hagel, these men KNOW the real mccain and they are supporting OBAMA. there's a reason for that.

and as for the right-wing, fear-mongering tactic of telling you obama not being able to protect us from the "terrorists", you have NO grasp of the REALITY of the situation in the middle east, iraq and iran in particular, or the world. it may be a slogan, but it defintely fits the climate of the world TODAY--WAR IS NOT THE ANSWER!!!!

bush and the repugs, through their invasion of iraq and future invasion of iran, have made this country and the middle east MORE UNSAFE!!! the middle east has been fighting for thousands of years, in what reality does starting another war make sense!?!?!

you do realize that iraq HATED al qaeda and they had ZERO presence in the country until we invaded iraq. we opened the floodgates and made al qaeda even stronger.

and the "insurgents" are not the same thing as "terrorists". the insurgents are everyday iraqis defending their country against an invasion, which is EXACTLY what we americans would do if we were invaded.

mccain is so outdated, backwards, past-thinking, and ignorant to think these wars will do ANY good. we all know the invasion had very very little to do with "democracy" anyway, it's all about petty ego cr@p, the oil, and war-profiteering.

obama is in line with every other civilized country in the world that knows we have to talk with people we dont agree with, and that war WILL NOT solve the problems in TODAY'S world.

who's gonna do more to keep us safe in the world where the majority of the citizens are brown, an angry old rich white guy out for a buck, or an intelligent brown man who wants this country and the world to reach its potential?!?!?! the choice is really obvious!!!!!!!!!!!!

lieberman is beside mcain more than cindy is. you all think mccain and him got something going on the side? just saying.....

Lieberman has to know where he is.
Obama shows us how he can mamge our country. People believe on him and that why he is beating Clinton on this primary

Joe Rockhead needs to shut up and see how a real candidate whoops on a republican. All we need is for McCain to make him VP and the whole thing is over with.

Obama's not willing to stand up to anyone or anything. We've seen that a few times already. He has no cojones.

We've also seen that he stands FOR nothing either.....just vague wisps of smoke called "hope" and "change."

The only vote he gets from me is the vote of..... NO CONFIDENCE.

Hillary or McCain – 2008

Joe, who would listen to your babble. The people of Conn. haveto live with Sen. they elected sad to say

this from a supporter of a guy who changed his views to support Bush?

What an outrage to have someone like Lieberman say the "Democratic Party is not what it was in 2000." That's the point Joe! Remember how Joe stood up to Cheney in the 2000 debate! NOT! Now I get it. In 2000 we didn't know how much Joe and Cheney agreed on.

A Republican in the post about Sen. Chuck Hagel proposed a trade: Lieberman for Hagel.

I'll take it. Lieberman is just another Harm-America Neocon.

Mr. Lieberman is such a joke. Dude you have been in every party that exist. Is that your cowardly plan to criticize each party you leave. Sorry Joe you cant have it both ways. By the way McCain will use you up. Do you think the conservatives would ever allow him to choose you as a running mate.

Senator Lieberman, with all due respect (and that respect is significant!), I think you are missing a point here. Senator Obama is a coalition builder, one who unites people to accomplish great things, rather than a drawer of lines in the sand as some other elected officials are. Obama fights, but the fight is subtle, helping to guide things to an amicable conclusion. Of course, I could be wrong, and I am sure many will say I am, but that is what I have seen thus far. I will not comment on any other candidate or elected official on this matter.

Wow, this guy is a nut! How much were you paid for your opinion. McCain wouldn't be so bad, but he hasn't stood up for anything since he started running for office. Apparently an exception to your analysis Mr. Lieberman, is when running for the presidency, you can lie and no longer stand for anything, or at least until you get the job. Right?

No I believe Lieberman your wrong...you stated...

In this, Sen. Obama stands in stark contrast to John McCain, who has shown the political courage throughout his career to do what he thinks is right – regardless of its popularity in his party or outside it. ...

What I take from this is John McCain will do as he pleases when he pleases, regardless what the american people think...

This is a DEMOCRACY.... NOT a DICTATORSHIP....

No more of McSame...Bushes third term will NOT happen!!

this are two stupid man following their self Mccain & Joe

You disagree with McCain's economic policies, and that's the most important issue to Americans. How do you criticize when you yourself don't back the entirety of his views?

Wow, the valuable words of a hardcore Neocon. You obviously have no credibility among Democrats, and certainly no credibility among true Republicans. Why is Joe Lieberman still in office?

I am sure he's targeting the VP slot from Mccain, He is a Yes man

Obama 08

Lieberman–put a dirty sock in it!

And Lieberman and McCain are not willing to stand up for the American people.
