If John Dubya McCain chooses Joe Droopy Lieberman as his vice presidential running mate, the Democrats ought to run a carbon copy of this old ad from 1968.
From the NYT: Lieberman used to be a perfectly good senator, but somewhere along the line he began thinking of himself as being above the partisan fray, and it had a terrible effect. When he ran for vice president, he was so busy being pompous that he didn’t notice that Dick Cheney had won the debate. (Of all the negative achievements in Lieberman’s career, it’s hard to top making Cheney the most likable man in the room.) During the Florida vote-counting crisis, he was so deeply unhelpful you could argue that it cost Gore his chance at the White House. I plan to go into this point in more depth in my upcoming book, “How Joe Lieberman Ruined Everything.”
SNAP!
