SNIP..."Many Democrats know it simply as "the kiss."

But when U.S. Sen. Joseph Lieberman, D-Conn., exchanged a public display of affection with President Bush after this month's State of the Union address, the gesture signaled a long kiss goodbye for some liberal Democrats in the senator's home state.

Predominantly anti-war in their beliefs, Lieberman's critics say the senator has alienated himself from the party's liberal wing with his alliances with Bush on issues such as Iraq and Cabinet nominations, and should be challenged in next year's Democratic primary.

"I think Senator Lieberman has been behaving much more like a Republican than a Democrat, and I think he needs to take another look at his constituents," said Kim Hynes, a Democrat from Lieberman's hometown of Stamford. "We live in a blue state and most people are opposed to the current administration."

Kim was a Dean Dozen, and many of them from CT are most upset.

4. What's so bad about Joe Lieberman?

Remember, this is the same guy who insisted that the only people in the world who have morals are Jews and Christians.

Isn't that what we Democrats and progressives stand for?

Go get 'em, Joe! You're on a roll.

3. Dean should sit him down and explain

That either Joe not seek re-election or face a true democrat in a primary.

and/or Joe could be known as 'Jumpin Joe' and head over to the party he really belongs to
