Everyone's favorite former senator from Connecticut has announced he will be voting for Hillary Clinton.

We really need to have a forum-wide talk about the quality of titles recently. They've been garbage even by the regular standard. As to the Lieberman thing, eh, it was barely news when he was thinking of "switching sides"; it certainly isn't news now.

Sorry. I just really hate Lieberman for a lot of reasons.

There's nothing wrong with that, but when creating threads on news, they should at least try to neutrally reflect the news (this one, e.g., doesn't even say who it is in the title). Sorry, I was already wound up by the multiple "LOL" titles from yesterday and the many threads now stuffed into the Hillary health megathread.

I bet Trump could have got Lieberman if he courted him and if he didn't treat Joe's friend John McCain so badly.  It would have been a big coup to counter all the Never Trump Republicans.  Again this shows a lack of organization and candidate discipline.

Uh... Lieberman would back isolationist Trump over a Scoop Jackson Democrat?

Joe Lieberman is a centrist. I'm centrist on some issues. I did not agree with Lieberman on all foreign policy issues. He's a sane centrist. That's why Gore picked him. But it probably cost Gore the presidency with hard leftist Nader being a spoiler. Yes, he may be a DINO, but he did do some good things in Congress.

The title was changed even after someone called someone else out indirectly.

Well done...

Yes, I know that you feel Lieberman played nice to Cheney to appeal to "moderate Republicans for Gore/Lieberman", but Lieberman is a centrist. Some things I agreed with him on, some I didn't. They feel he's the last breed of "moderate Scoop Jackson Democrats" because a lot of people feel that Sanders and socialists have taken over the party.

I thought you had to actually be a Democrat in order to be called a DINO.

Ugh. Well, it's going to take more than that to push me toward Trump.

I'm sure someone even more awful than Lieberman has endorsed Stein.

Like Stein's VP nominee, for instance?

Lieberman was full of praise for Trump a couple of months ago but I guess endorsing him was a fridge too far even for a douchebag of his magnitude.

Hillary's no Scoop Jackson.  But, yes, Trump is not a neocon.
