Joedick
There are a couple of very good posts up today that make a compelling comparison of Joe Lieberman and Tricky Dick Nixon. These comparisons were sparked by an exchange between Boltin' Joe and Ned Lamont after last night's debate:
Evidently after the debate Lieberman walked up to Ned and said "You goddamn sonovabitch," and something to the effect of "how dare you run those direct mail pieces accusing me of voting for the energy bill in 2005 because of campaign contributions from the oil companies." Joe's losing it.
I've got to admit that the comparisons do fit. How ironic that Boltin' Joe got his start as an anti-Vietnam war candidate.
