Joe Lieberman.

I dislike his positions. I dislike his embrace of everything Bush and by extension his embrace of the other man who embraced everything Bush - McCain. I hated that he did not accept gracefully the decision of Connecticut Democratic primary voters. I loathed his "he hacked me!" smears about Ned LaMont. I disagree with just about every single thing the man says.

Even so,I grudgingly admire his personal "damn the torpedos" viewpoint and willingness to go all out with no restraint.

On a personal level.

But, I would still strip him of his chairmanship and I would ask him if he wouldn't be more comfortable being a Republican.
