Lieberman?

I was very dissapointed to see Lieberman do so well in a recent poll. If I wanted to vote for a religous conservative, I'd be a Republican.

Right now, I'm looking at Dean and Kerry.

RE: Lieberman?

Howard Dean looks the best to me out of the current field of candidates. However, I really hope Russ Feingold will run. The Democrats need a real progressive for the 2004 ticket. If Lieberman runs and wins the Democratic nomination, I'm voting for the Green Party candidate (whoever that may be). Lieberman is in far too deep with both big business and the religious right. It will be almost impossible to convince me that he is much different from Bush.

RE: RE: Lieberman?

Why don't you like Lieberman? I think he's one of the best choices, although Graham would be my first choice. If the Dems want to keep Blue Dogs like me in the party, you can't nominate these ultraliberals like Kerry or Dean. Liberman has a record that is inline with most Americans, despite your argument that he's a "religious conservative" (which he is not). He is a man of deep faith. Why is that bad? You know, Clinton and Gore weren't all that liberal either. The fact that Al Sharpton leads Lieberman, Gephardt and Daschle is really scary.

RE: Lieberman?

The ADL seems to think he's a religous conservative.

I could not care less what the ADL thinks. Lieberman gave a speech about his religious beliefs. I still don't see why this is bad. If we had more people like Lieberman in our party, maybe we would do better in the south.

RE: Lieberman?

The Republicans do what it takes to do well in the South. I prefer another approach.
