Hartford Connecticut metro area has 1.1 million residents. It is also the capital of Connecticut. It is also known as "The Insurance Capital of the World". Joe Lieberman has little chance of getting re-elected in this state where 65% of registered voters are Democrats, 30% independents and 4% Republicans. Lieberman has said he will not rule out running as a Republican in 2012. Joe Lieberman’s wife has worked most of her life for pharmaceutical companies and a cat fight has broken out on that issue between Conservative Columnist Kathleen Parker and liberal Blogger Jane Hamsher at Firedoglake. Three months ago Lieberman was for the Medicare buy in before he was against it. 3 MONTHS AGO!
To be fair to Senator Lieberman let me just say he is a political turncoat, a traitor to the American people, a NeoCon war-hawk who got us into Iraq, and a nasty vindictive little bastard who is taking bribes from the health insurance industry to do everything he can to hurt the President, the Democrats and the American people. Easily winner of the Kick! Shithead of the year award and runner up as Shithead of the decade. In his defense I must say he is a truly disgusting little man how reminds me of the Shithead of the Century, Roy Cohn.
