The Devil and Senator Lieberman

[bleedingheart]

"Friday, August 11, 2006

Somewhere in Connecticut, Sen. Joe Lieberman stares at his reflection in the bathroom mirror.

Days after democracy jumped the rails and the stars fell from the sky, he is still in denial about the results of the Connecticut primary. Blinking back a tear, he grudgingly flashes the least sincere smile in American politics.

"We have Jo-mentum," he says, listening to the echo from the bathroom fixtures. He's pleased with how optimistic he sounds in his splendid isolation.

"This is only the first half of the game," he says, raising his fists to the mirror and grinning maniacally. "Ned Lamont may be ahead, but we'll win the Super Bowl by a ninth-inning knockout."
