"We are at war with a brutal enemy," Lieberman said while visiting a pizza parlor. "How the heck can we be in a battle in which we are fighting as Democrats and Republicans against each other when these terrorists certainly don't distinguish based on party affiliation? They want to kill any and all of us."
Ironically, as a Gallup Poll showed, Lieberman has more support from Republicans than he does among Democrats, though the 48 percent of Democrats who voted for him this month isn't chopped liver, either.
But with the Republican establishment rejecting Alan Schlesinger, who gets 6 percent in the polls, the dirty little secret in Washington is that some of Lieberman's biggest supporters are in the White House.
Oh, Joe. How hard is it to recall the old addage, "If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem"? I've got no issue with you running as a Republican with Republican money and Republican staff... just please stop calling yourself an Independent Democrat.
