Lieberman as new SECDEF???

[BOSSHOG]

CT GOP GOVERNOR TO APPOINT HIS REPLACEMENT???

Just idle speculation from Mississippi

[BattyDem]

1. If Lieberman screws us after all this ...

he will prove once and for all that he is loyal to no one but himself! :grr:

[satya]

2. My first thought, too ... nt

[Justitia]

3. Don't even THINK it! Nooooo! -eom

[Nite Owl]

4. I just wrote that to someone

too. CT has a repuke gov does she get to appt or would there be a special election? I can't for a second believe that they are 'listening' to the people.

[Clark2008]

7. She appoints first then special election.

That's they way it works every where else.

Would that be true in CT?

[Nite Owl]

11. So would a special election

then give us Lamont? Their repuke candidate hardly registered on the counts.

[Literate Tar Heel]

5. sounds about right

that's the first thing I thought of as soon as I heard it

[lefthandedskyhook]

6. That's a scary thought n/t

[Edgewater_Joe]

8. WE. TOLD. YOU. SO.

Pre-emptive strike.

[Rowdyboy]

9. I would not be surprised in the least.....

Lieberman will find a way to stick it to us. That you can count on.

[cyclezealot]

10. he is a slime ball.

I think he planned this all along. Not news to me. Bush will think Rumsfield will have to go, when it means REpukes control the Senate.

[The Magistrate]

12. No, Sir, Some Other Fellow Gets The Chop

[sir_captain]

13. Thankfully

I believe MSNBC reported it would be the ex-CIA head Robert Gates.

14. Funny business is up...

But I predict this won't happen. Leiberman won't take it... Joe may be one of the Senators most powerful men when all this is said and done. Ole' boy landed on his feet in the end...
