the day after the new congress is sworn in. We are one vote away from a Cheny tie breaker so we have to put up with the asshole till January. After that the son of a bitch is going to get no committee assignments.
His hope is McCain wins and he gets to be in the cabinet.
As much as I'd like to see the adnenoidal dumbfuck finally relegated to a Senate broom closet, Democrats will be deciding how important it is to enhance their chances of winning cloture votes. Oleaginous Joe might get a pass yet again, as fucking maddening as it might be.
Have you heard about John and Joe? Did they really get pinned? Did he kiss him and cry? Did he pin the (flag) pin on? Or was he too shy? Well, I heard they got pinned -Yeah! Yeah! I was hopin' they would! - Oho! Now they're livin' at last, Goin' steady for good!
15. I think Holy Joe will be his running mate. I think he wants somebody he can trust
and I think he likes and trusts Joe and they are of the same mind on Iran and Iraq. He trusts Joe much more than Huck or Mittens. Mark my word it will be McCain/Lieberman.
21. I'll take that bet. No way Joe L is on the repub ticket
Would Joe L get a spot in a McCain administration? Certainly (assuming he wanted it, which he probably would). But the repubs aren't putting somewone with a generally pro-choice record on the ticket with a 71 year old presidential nominee. Their base is already squeamish about McCain. The one thing he doesn't need to shore up is his warmongering credentials. He needs to get the fundies excited about supporting him and Joe L is not the way to do that.
as to why Lieberman still serves on Democratic committees. I think it has to deal with the balance of power in the Senate. It's one of those things that you have to do to keep the Republicans from having more power in the Senate.
