She supported Lieberman in both his primary and his general election.
Lieberman dropped his investigation into Bush's failure on Katrina.
Joe just killed Mary's chances in 2008.

The ending of the Landrieu's influence over Louisiana politics would be a good thing I think.
I'd rather her seat go to another Democrat though.

Which other Democrat? I think this seat will go Republican now that New Orleans has been sufficiently de-blacked.

Well, he'd have elected as a Democrat Smiley for a start. I don't know Lieberman personally, but I could understand him feeling, at the time, sh**t on from a great height

Maybe Lieberman is with Bush on Iraq (it's not like he isn't with the Democrats on pretty much everything else). I dare say were the Hawk in the Senate with him, he'd differ from most of his fellow Democrats on Iraq. Of course, I wouldn't be cutting Bush any slack the way Joe does. And as far as Hurrican Katrina goes that is pretty much exactly what he's doing Sad. It isn't good enough Sad

Lieberman is sh**tty on plenty of things other than Iraq. Of course Iraq is the 800 pound gorilla.

To sweeten the pot, we'll even throw in McCain and Lindsey Graham.  In other words, you guys can have all three media whores.

fine by me. Hagel, McCain, and Graham are all men of principle who put loyalty to thier country above loyalty to their party. I'd rather have any three of them (or better yet all three) as democrats in exchange for Lieberman. I also have a feeling Hagel and Graham would be a lot more willing to investigate Bush's Katrina response.

Check their voting records. 3 batsh**t crazy right-wingers who occasionally offer tepid criticism of their party? I'll pass.
