MonkeyHouse's Lieberman Report

Can I go one day without dishing on our favorite fallen CT Republicrat, Joe Lieberman?  Probably, and I will eventually run out of info to do a daily report, but until I do, he gets his very own MonkeyHouse feature.

As predicted, Senate Democrats from around the country are jumping off the Lieberman train and flocking to support the new CT nominee, Ned Lamont.  The likes of Hilary Rodham Clinton and Christopher Dodd have stepped up and thrown their support behind Lamont, with many other Democrats joining in a little support chorus.  Both Clinton and Dodd, who supported Lieberman and campaigned for him prior to the primary, have unfortunately stopped short of calling for Lieberman to withdraw and do the right thing, i.e. supporting the winner of the primary. 

Lieberman is acting like the spoiled child who refuses to stop crying even after mom has (1) told him he can't have the toy, (2) checked out at the supermarket, (3) brought the groceries out to the car, and (4) driven away.  All the while, little crybaby Joe is sitting in the backseat of the minivan shrieking his little heart out that he wants Jazzercize Barbie.  Mom knows better...knows that it will make him stronger in the end.  She also knows that his good friend Georgy Bush doesn't like fairies, and of course, only fairies and girls play with dolls. 

Wait...where was I?  Huh?  A point, you say?  Oh....

Lieberman should withdraw, and not give Republican Schlessinger a chance to win when the Democratic vote gets split.  You lost, Joe...just let the better man go forward.  This isn't double elimination!
