Joe Lieberman, unwitting Republican operative?

[Paragon]

No chance in hell to get elected, bashes the frontrunner at every opportunity.

Discuss.

1. Bashing vs. challenging in political dialogue

Although I'm not a fan of Lieberman and wish he would drop out pronto, he does have some points to make about Dean's gaffes and such.

I'd guess that to most undecided voters that he put Dean in an uncomfortable position and had him on the defensive.

There' no chance that Lieberman will get the nomination, but I do think he does bring up some valid points.

If anything, he plays the Devil's Advocate that Dean should be prepared for if he gets the nomination. So far, Dean has appeared weak and untrustworthy in his rebuttals to Lieberman's jabs.

If you support Dean, consider it Rove attack training. If you back another candidate, consider it that Lieberman is doing your candidate's work...

2. I'm beginning to wonder if its even unwitting

After the debate all he could talk about is Dean but I guess he can't say much about Bush because they agree on enough points. It is very sad for the Democratic Party....what BS....

He miss quoted Dean acting like Dean had said that we were no safer with Saddam imprisoned than when he was in power.....What crap I spose next he will claim Dean invented the internet.

3. Locking...

This is inflammatory and Senator Lieberman is still a Democratic candidate.
