Poll question: Will Lieberman actually filibuster?
Is Joe going to do it or is he just bluffing

1. I don't think so. He was very jealous of Snowe when she was getting
all that attention. Now that she expects to be out of the picture he decided HE would become the star of the media!

3. The little fairweather shit could be hoping that the mid terms will be a win

for the GOP and a way to continue his position and power with them.

4. I don't see what he gains. A bill will pass through reconciliation if necessary.

He would piss off a whole bunch of people and not have much to show for it, and have no input in the bill created through reconciliation.
