Say "No," Joe

The Blog | Arianna Huffington: Memo to Lieberman: ‘Real Democrats' Don't Run as Independents if They Lose | The Huffington Post: "At yesterday's big campaign rally, Joe Lieberman took a swipe at Ned Lamont, saying 'My opponent is peddling what I would call a big lie, and that is that I'm not a real Democrat.' Let's leave aside the Third Reich, 'big lie' imagery (although it was very popular yesterday, with Sen.
Jim Inhofe also using it to slime global warming activists), and just focus on the question of Lieberman's bona fides as a 'real Democrat.' The proof that he is the genuine article would be an announcement that he, like all real Democrats, will honor the decision of Democratic primary voters -- and not run as an Independent. That's what real Democrats do. . ."

Ms. Huffington is absolutely correct, Senator.
