Saying no to Joe.

As if there weren't enough reasons to make sure that Sen. Joe Lieberman (D-Quisling) doesn't get the Democratic presidential nomination:

Democratic leaders are stiffening their opposition to war with Iraq at a time when U.S. troops are preparing to crush Saddam Hussein's terrorist regime to prevent another September 11.

In a strategic decision that could turn into a political disaster for their party in 2004, House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Democratic Leader Tom Daschle are playing to the liberal, anti-war base of their party. That move has upset some of their party's presidential hopefuls who fear it could fuel deeper doubts about the Democrats' falling credibility on defense and national security matters.

That is forcing even a front-runner like Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry, who also voted for the war resolution, to toughen his criticism of Mr. Bush on the diplomatic front, while still supporting military action.

However, Sen. Joe Lieberman of Connecticut has been consistently raising the level of his attacks on Saddam and defending the need to "get rid of this tyrant." A Lieberman adviser told me, "You won't find anyone among our party's presidential candidates who supports Bush more on this issue, than Joe does."

Say goodbye, Joe. No nomination for you....
