Remember Gore's incredibly graceful concession speech in 2000...

[flpoljunkie]

Compare Gore's grace and selflessness to that of his old running mate, Joe Lieberman, last night. Joe Lieberman's selfish refusal to concede defeat and support the winner of his party is graceless and indefensible.

1. I think if the roles were reversed... we would be better off as a country!

2. Graceless, indefensible, and oh so predictable.

DLC = the "me first" wing of the Democratic party.

4. Lieberman self-aggrandizing to the core

doesn't give a damn about anything but his cushy sucked-up-to lifestyle. What a p.o.s.

5. Anybody know what Al is saying about Joe's loss and his refusal to accept

defeat?

[TAPat]

6. I'm wondering exactly the same thing! nt

7. Didn't Joe tell Al

to back off and just "get over it"?

Not in those exact words, but the exact same effect ...

8. And in public, too.

:thumbsdown:

[flpoljunkie]

9. Lieberman blamed Gore's "people vs the powerful" message for their loss.

He and the DLC's Al From, that is.

10. It was such a magnificent speech that even Chris Matthews praised Gore's

"sublime masculinity". No, I'm not making this up.

11. Tweety sure does seem to be obsessed with politicians' masculinity.

Just saying...
