Will Joe Lieberman throw a third national election for the Dems?

Political Wire has Joe's statement where he seems downright giddy that Bush isn't supporting the Republican Senate candidate (wink, wink). You can read his words there.... I'm sick of his pompous, sanctimonious -- and Cheneyesque -- statements.

Lieberman has the potential to play a role in his third major defeat for Democrats at the national level. We all know the horrible job he did in 2000 before and after the election. In 2002, he played right in to the hands of Bush and Rove on the creation of the Department of Homeland Security -- which helped undermine the campaigns of a couple of his Democratic colleagues.

Bush and Rove call Lieberman their friend... but, face it, they don't have friends. The Republicans must just laugh at what a sap he is. They're using him for their own partisan purposes. And, of course, Joe's playing right in to the hands of Bush and Rove AGAIN.

Joe's actions on behalf of the GOP (whether unwitting or purposeful) could undermine the effort to pick up the House and the Senate. Those three House seats in Connecticut are critical... yesterday, the Washington Post analyzed how winnable the northeast seats are for Democrats. Leave it to Joe to help screw it up.

Question for the Lieberman campaign: Since Joe seems giddy about the support he's getting from the GOP, when will Bush and Cheney be coming to Connecticut to campaign for Joe?
