>>>And no, I wouldn't be voting for McCain if Lieberman were on the ticket. I don't agree with McCain about much of anything. I disagree with Lieberman less, I suspect (and he was my son's across-the-hall neighbor very briefly), but I didn't much like him when Gore picked him and I like him less now. I don't vote a candidate just because he's Jewish any more than I vote for one just because she's a woman. All other things being equal (which they never are), those factors might come into play, but they don't outweigh policy.

>>I think it was pretty well known that McCain had his heart set on Lieberman, but his advisors eventually were able to push him away from that decision. All I heard for days on multiple news channels was how terrible a decision for his campaign it would be if he chose Lieberman...

It will be interesting to see if CNN is right - they just forecasted that she would 'bow out due to personal family issues.'
