Joe Lieberman would make a terrible vice presidential pick for John McCain.
I can't believe some pundits continue to say Lieberman -- a turncoat Democrat who's now an independent U.S. senator from Connecticut -- would attract a lot of voters to McCain's camp.
Republicans shouldn't trust Lieberman, who's already bolted from one political party.
And Democrats who are thinking of voting for McCain for any reason -- such as upset Hillary Clinton fans or Barack Obama haters -- certainly would be cool to the idea of backing any ticket with Lieberman on it.
Lieberman already was part of a failed presidential campaign, when Al Gore led the Democratic ticket in 2000. Lieberman could make history by becoming a second-time loser after, essentially, changing parties.
McCain should not tab Lieberman if he wants a good chance of winning in November.

Your fiver awaits
Yeah, clear, you think Joe ("100% NARAL rating") Lieberman got done dirty by the Dems. I weep. Now what?
Please READ my first post.
It seems very clear what I said.
Nice one, DanBeyer
I'll give you five dollars American cash money if you locate the slightest criticism of libraries in my last post. And you still haven't explained why you're suffering the torments of hell because the Dems aren't showing the bloody-handed baby murderer Lieberman the respect he so richly deserves.
Library now a for place of scorn for liberals!
Only hate filled people who despise those who think for themselves and love education would bad mouth libraries!
Yikes!
Dear Dan: How'd you get into the library before 9 AM?
"Overall Lieberman has a pro-choice voting record, and in 2007 he received a grade of 100 from the abortion rights organization NARAL Pro-Choice America." Damn those Dems for how they "treated him despicable"! He's a bloody-handed baby murderer, and deserves his seat in the caucus room!
How does it feel to be really, really stupid?

Aren't you the same guy who touted Funkhouser for Mayor??? Maybe you should step aside for another ten or twenty years and keep your thoughts to yourself :)
Lieberman a turncoat Democrat?!
LOL! You revisionists are incredible! The Democrat Party turned on him! Just like they did to Hillary Clinton! They treated him despicable just as they did her!
A house divided falls. After the way Joe Lieberman and Hillary Clinton was treated, the Democrat Party deserves to fail in November!
