Recently, Senators Joe Lieberman (I-Connecticut)and John McCain (R-Arizona) filled legislation to fund the troop surge in Iraq. Lieberman, who traveled to Iraq with McCain over Thanksgiving, said he has spoken with soldiers and commanding officers and realized the troop surge is working. The unlikely pair is attempting to convince a hostile Congress (and media for that matter) of the progress overseas.
Is it just me or is Joe Lieberman looking like a Republican these days? He is a far cry from the man who ran for Vice-President with Al Gore. Most people forget Lieberman's Republican past. It is possible that Lieberman put the "D" next to his name simply as part of an opportunistic strategy to further his political career. This sounds like something Rudy Giuliani did some twenty years ago. He is attempting to become President on the Republican ticket.
