Say it Ain't Joe!

Another day, another warning. Add Karl Rove to the chorus of conservatives dead-set against the notion of Joe Lieberman being added to McCain's ticket. In fact, according to Politico:

Republican strategist Karl Rove called Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman (I-Conn.) late last week and urged him to contact John McCain to withdraw his name from vice presidential consideration, according to three sources familiar with the conversation.

Rove, it seems, wants Mitt Romney. I guess if McCain picks Lieberman, he can claim he still has his old "Maverick" mojo working. But it sure seems that what little excitement conservatives have been able to muster for McCain will be swiftly deflated.

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.
