"He has behaved like a creep and dragged the public discourse into the toilet."

Colin McEnroe (a local writer and radio personality in Hartford, CT)
on Joe Lieberman.

Also, an interesting take here:

One person who noticed, I believe, was Barack Obama. Everyone has marveled at Obama's almost uncanny calm and cool during a hard-fought campaign. We never saw him lose it. Well, almost never. Virtually the only day you ever saw Obama lose that cool was the day in June when he backed Lieberman up against a wall in the Senate and, out of earshot, let him have it.

Obama strikes me as the politician least likely to seek revenge. But I don't think he'll have to ask for Lieberman's head. Lieberman bet his whole stack of chips on McCain and then crossed every imaginable line of decency pursuing the win. There are Senate elections unresolved right now, but even winning all of them would not bring the Democrats, with Lieberman's unreliable help, to 60 votes.
