Well, its not like we did not see this coming. Joe Liebermann's walk to the dark side is nearly complete after officially endorsing Susan Collins' reelection campaign.
Does This Surprise Anyone? National Journal’s CongressDaily reports that Joe Lieberman (I) is backing Sen. Susan Collins’ (R) re-election bid no matter the Democratic nominee -- even though Democrats are targeting her seat. "I would just feel that I was not being honest to myself and everything I've said about what our politics should be like now if, for partisan reasons, I didn't support somebody who I think is a great senator," he says. Does McCain become Lieberman’s second GOP endorsement in ‘08, if he wins the Republican nomination?
Probably.
It's hard to say anything that has not already been said about Liebermann. It's clear that he's determined to be 2008's Zell Miller. However, his endorsement moves this race to the top of my target list for 2008, as there would be nothing sweeter than watching Joe's war-loving friends fall around him.
