TPM Reader PB on Joe: "I imagine Joe wishes Ken, Tony, Dick, Karl and all the other Republicans heaping praise on him right now would just shut up. They are not going to help him with the Independent voters he needs to keep on his side in order to prevail in a three-way race. I'm sure that Karl Rove and company recognize this fact as well as anyone; they know they are not doing Lieberman any favors with their effusive praise. The fact is Joe has outlived his usefulness for them, and they're happy to throw him overboard in the hope that having a "weak-on-defense-extremist" boogeyman to kick around will minimize the electoral onslaught they are facing in November. That kiss Bush gave Lieberman is looking more and more like a Michael Corleone moment."with friends like these...

Generally correct, but I disagree that Lieb has outlived his usefulness to Rove and Co. Right now, I am sure they are plotting to see if they can get him reelected (the devil you know, etc.)
I hear that even though the Lieb camp denied it, Rove called after his loss to offer support and guidance.
Damn media people. Always finding out the truth despite these people's best efforts.
or worst, as the case may be...
What's worse than the truth?
