#1 I don't care where he goes to lunch, as long as he stands up to the rest of the Democratic Losers.

Not losers because they're losers - which they are, but Losers, because they want to Lose The War.

#2 I hope that he stays in the Democratic Party. I feel a sence of ballance by at least having one Democratic Leader that I respect.

#3 You're loving it, aren't you, Joe.

I completely agree, Stay please And be A huge Thorn in the Democratic Party's side, You'd be much more influential than if you bailed for the Repubs.

#6 What's the R vs D count in the Senate now? Would Joe as an R change the tilt on committee assignments etc?

#7 From something written in January of this year:

Although the number of Democrats and Republicans is tied at 49, two Independent members, Joe Lieberman (CT) and Bernie Sanders (VT), caucus with the Democrats, shifting the Senate to Democratic control.

So, if Senator Lieberman shifts to caucussing with the Republicans, the Democrats lose their edge. I would think the Vice President's vote would then make the difference -- and the honourable Representative Pelosi's dreams of world domination would turn to dust and ashes. Just my guess, though, occasional observer.

#8 Maybe Bernie Sanders will become a Republican and take Joe off the hook...

#10 I've been watching Lieberman for some time, and, although, I never vote for a social liberal, I think I would vote for this guy. I think he is the best candidate for the protection of the U.S.

#11 I doubt that if Joe did jump ship it would make much difference. There are simply too many RINO's on the Republican side that already side with the Democrats too much of the time as it stands.
