So there's some sort of rumor flying about in Washington that President Bush is considering appointing Senator Joe "I lost Florida" Lieberman to be Secretary of Defense (or at least, Senator Russ Feingold (D-WI) treated it as a serious possibility in his appearance on Air America today.
If Lieberman would even consider this appointment, I consider him a traitor to his party. We have no reason to think he'd be a good Sec'y of Defense and it would just hand the Republicans an opportunity to have a high profile Democrat to receive populist anger against the war.
