Yeah that’s true. I think people will have a better idea once we see more. Lieberman was the 2004 frontrunner at one point FFS and he was a total non-factor in the end. I don’t think Sanders and Biden are particularly strong candidates. I like Biden but Biden is better as part of a team like he was with Obama.

Lieberman isn’t the reason Gore lost — though it’s possible that Tennessee went for Bush because enough voters wouldn’t support a Jewish vice-president. I remember watching one Bush-Gore debate and screaming at the screen “Where is Ralph Nader now that we need him?” No — I didn’t vote for Nader, but Gore’s debate performance was underwhelming. That may have cost Gore enough votes — well that and the Florida voter purges of legitimate voters — to lose the election.
