Then and Now

Timeline:
November 2000, this man, Senator Joe Lieberman as Vice-Presidential candidate with Al Gore lose the Presidential election to now president George Bush. In controversial action, nearly every liberal and known Democrat rally around those two and convince them to not give up and to keep fighting the results until it was victorious for them.
August 2006, Joe Lieberman loses the Connecticut primary to anti-Iraq War guy Ned Lamont. Lieberman, in old fashion form from 2000, vows to stay in the election as an Independent. Most liberals and known Democrats are now telling Lieberman to give up and rally around Lamont to take on the GOP challenger. What a turn of events. Just goes to show that if you're a liberal and you support the president on just one topic, you don't stand a chance for re-election. Remember Zell Miller? The proud southern Democrat who opposed virtually every Bush policy except for the War on Terror. Miller was cast aside as a traitor based on one ideal belief of protection.
