ARLINGTON, Va. Feb. 3 - Sen. Joe Lieberman, unable to inspire Democratic voters who embraced his 2000 vice presidential campaign, ended his presidential bid Tuesday night after a string of disappointing defeats. He pronounced himself proud, nonetheless, of the campaign he waged.
"The judgment of the voters is now clear," Lieberman told supporters gathered at a hotel in northern Virginia. " For me, it is now time to make a difficult but realistic decision. I have decided tonight to end my quest for the presidency of the United States of America. Am I disappointed? Naturally. But am I proud of what we stood for in this campaign? You bet I am."

    Despite his long history with Gore the Bore, I think he was probably the Democratic candidate I despised the least.

    He was certainly the most moderate out of the Democratic field. And the Liberals basically strung him up for it.

    Considering that something like 80% of Democrats said THE most important thing about a candidate is that he could beat Bush, Lieberman never really had a chance.

    Digression: Doesn't that seem really ignorant and dangerous of the Liberals? I know they're well-known for their dangerous levels of ignorance, but this seems a stretch even for them.

    "We dont care if the guy wants to enslave the population and eat babies for breakfast! If he could get rid of Bush, we'll throw the entire party behind him!"

    Idiots...

    Exactly the point being made by those really alarmed about the direction the "Conservatives" are taking the country going today...

    Just too bad folks cannot view both parties for what they are.When you stand on the Constitution,one Must view both with equal alarm..because neither party give one thin da*** about America.
