Lieberman to speak at Republican Convention

[True Democrat]

The Democrats who defended and supported Joe Lieberman in 2006 owe the rest of us Democrats an apology.

No we don't.  Being a Democrat (or a Republican) does not mean always supporting the Democratic candidate.  It means supporting Democratic values (which is defined by each person), regardless of candidate.  That's what I did for the Connecticut Senate race in 2006 and for this presidential election.

Every suspicion anyone ever had about McCain, that he wasn't a loyal Republican, that he isn't a real Conservative, would be confirmed by picking a pro-choice Jew who voted single-handedly could have kept the Senate in Republican hands, but voted for Harry Reid instead.

^^^^^^
This is why Lieberman won't be McCain's veep.

If Lieberman had voted to give the Republicans the majority, I think he would be VP.  Now, I think McCain will have to compromise for Ridge if he wants to break the mold in any way.
