Reply #4: Even Howard Dean isn't crazy enough to support this left-wing mischief [View All]

I just wonder how DU'ers and all the left-wingers in the blogosphere will react when Howard Dean offers Lieberman his full-throated endorsement.

I may disagree with Howard Dean on many things, but I'm sure even he realizes that it is far better to focus our efforts on defeating incumbent Republicans and winning open seats than in defeating Joe Lieberman.

Personally, I don't really mind if Lieberman faces a primary challenge, because it means I'll get to gloat when Lieberman wins. But I don't think Dean and the rest of the folks at the DNC are going to want Lieberman raising tons of $$$ to fend off a primary challenge, since that will cut into what people are going to be contributing to other candidates. They're already grumbling about how much money Hillary is raising.
