Joe's Backers

Not to dwell too much on Joe Lieberman, but let's take a look at some of the endorsement's he's picked up in the past few days:

The New York Times tells us that Newt Gingrich has chosen 'Strong Democrat' Joe Lieberman over the Republican Alan Schlesinger.

Robert Novak points out that President Bush's lack of an endorsement of Alan Schlesinger is the first time since 1970 that a President has failed to endorse his own party's nomination for Senate. The other time? Richard Nixon refused to endorse an anti-war Republican nominee in New York. He endorsed (and Spiro Agnew campaigned for) James Buckley who ran on the Conservative Party ticket.

Iraq is looking more and more like Vietnam everyday...

Republican Senate Candidate from Washington State, Mike McGavick, has thrown his considerable support behind the 'true Democrat' Joe Lieberman.

The Washington Wire reports that John McCain endorsed 'loyal democrat' Joe Lieberman on Meet the Press.

Republican Congressman Mark Kennedy has endorsed 'faithful democrat' Joe Lieberman.

Ann Coulter is on the 'Democrat's Democrat' Joe Lieberman train.

So is RNC Chairman Ken Mehlman.

Even the Republican Senate Committee has backed 'died in the wool Dem' Joe Lieberman.

If you have any more links to GOoPers supporting, endorsing, or otherwise encouraging 'Enabler Joe' leave them in the comments.
