Comments like that are exactly why we're the minority and the Republicans win election after election. I never hear a moderate Republican criticize a radical right wing neo-con (How many Republicans who don't live in New York have criticize Ann Coulter's latest statements...none. But somehow since there are voters who are unhappy with the performance of Lieberman and want a primary (which is our right), we're somehow "kooks"<BR/><BR/>My question to you Patricia is this, if Joe Lieberman jumps ship, are you going to jump ship with him or support the Democratic candidate? <BR/><BR/>I think I know the answer.ctbloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11933171041442029176noreply@blogger.com
