Aides to senator say it is 'quite possible' the independent Democrat would go to support McCain

Will Joseph Lieberman appear at this year's Republican National Convention?

After the week that was, fellow Democrats in Lieberman's home state said they wouldn't put it past the U.S. senator to put in an appearance at the GOP summit in St. Paul, Minn., this summer to reaffirm his support for the presumptive presidential nominee, John McCain.

Aides to Lieberman, who was in Germany and unavailable for comment, said it is "quite possible" that the self-described independent Democrat will be headed to the Twin Cities for the GOP convention.

State Democratic Chairwoman Nancy DiNardo said that would go over "like a lead balloon" for party members.

"It's very disheartening because two years ago he spoke about working to get a Democrat elected president," DiNardo said.

He's gone. If he goes to the GOP convention and endorses McCain the dems will have no choice but to kick his sorry republican lite ass out of the party.

Even if they kicked him out after the GOP convention, it would only be a few months before we took control again. They really wouldn't have a choice, it could literally split the party.

So, what does that mean? How am I supposed to interpret that? Are you suggesting Obama is a Lieberman in black face?

It's a fact. Interpret it the way you want.
