Crest: Lieberman: Political hack

Born at the Crest of the Empire: (Insert your vilest personal obscenity here): "Now, Lieberman blackmails the Dems for a committee chair.

Senator Joseph I. Lieberman of Connecticut said yesterday that he will caucus with Senate Democrats in the new Congress, but he would not rule out switching to the Republican caucus if he starts to feel uncomfortable among Democrats.

Look, I didn't really care about the Connecticut Senate race, but this is vile politics."
