Lieberman Confirms Suspicions: I am a Republican

Okay, so maybe that's not really the way it happened. But it was pretty darn close.

The AP's Nedra Pickler finds Joe Lieberman going after every other Democrat, from Dean to Graham, for being too liberal. He got the DLC memo, he took it to heart, and he's running with it. His campaign is faltering and I suspect this is his last gasp. He's making his "centrist" (read: conservative) stand and then that will be it. Alienating liberals is not the way to win the Democratic nomination.

As Joe said, "I've crossed a bridge... I'm in this for the duration." By "crossed a bridge," Joe was clearly referring to the bridge that leads out of Contention City. And by "for the duration," he clearly meant, "until I run out of money."

Thanks to all of my readers who sent messages of congrats and support on my marriage. We really appreciate it!

But I'm still on vacation, so don't be expecting daily updates...
