Twisting in the wind

We are all witnessing the disgusting spectacle of Joseph Lieberman attempting to slither back into the good graces of the Democratic Party. I can't say I wish him luck, even with heavy sarcasm. The man is an embarrassment, even when he is trying to crawl. I saw a clip of him after his press conference, and believe it or not, he is still his sanctimonious old self. He stressed he supported McCain for the good of his country, and he said that basically he should skate, in the interest of being bipartisan. How he could support McCain and his disgusting campaign is beyond me. Many republicans jumped ship because they couldn't stand the nasty, vapid campaign that McCain was running - Colin Powell, Jim Leach, the list is long. I am sure he was convinced that McCain would win, and that he would be rewarded with a plum cabinet position, as he clearly has no future in Connecticut politics (speaking of buyers remorse - it is hard to meet anyone who will confess to voting for the man in the last election.) It is kind of fun to watch Joe twist in the wind as Harry Reid considers his options.
