Lieberman's contempt for Democratic voters is his weakness

If you are wondering why the so-called radical anti-war blogging Democratic left is out to purge the party of a clear middle-of the road Democratic Senator with three terms, then you don't understand the real issue. DHin MI lays it out very clearly.

"what's driving the Lamont effort, it's Lieberman's contempt for people who don't share his views. Democratic voters haven't been on a jihad to cleanse the party of people who supported the Iraq war; hell, we even nominated a Presidential candidate who had voted for the Iraq War Resolution. Joementum's claim is a canard. His problems are entirely of his own doing, and have little to do with the policies he supports or the ideas he espouses and almost everything to do with the contempt he showers on those he would refer to as Jihadists, but who we call Democrats."

I agree with DHinMI. While I dislike Lieberman's Iraq War position, my dislike for the man has grown everytime I have seen him on TV. He doesn't seem to have an honest bone in his body. He acts like a nasty, fat-faced little kid who is demanding to have all the candy or he'll throw a tantrum. He has made the whole election about keeping him in office or else he'll screw the Democrats every way he can.
