What I continue to find hilarious is that if Gore/Lieberman had won in 2000, Vice President Lieberman would most likely be the current frontrunner for the nomination next year.
It's funny that has one event occured, the entire timeline would be messed up. The Republicans would still control Congress, Chris Shays would be a Senator, Ned Lamont wouldn't be the liberal martyr that he is today, John Kerry would be a nobody, etc. etc.
Are you sure Shays would be a Senator? Even if he replaced Lieberman then he would have had a tough time in 2006 and probably would have been defeated, given that he would represent all of Conecticut rather than his district.
