Lieberman: ‘The momentum is with the Republicans…. thank God’

It’s so great that Barack Obama stepped in to save Lieberman’s chairmanship after Lieberman campaigned so viciously against Obama during the 2008 elections. It’s so great to see how Lieberman has been grateful to Obama and the Democrats. He’s still such a class act. Now, very pious Lieberman is thanking god that the GOP has the political momentum. And, Lieberman said this to the right-wing publication, Newsmax, no less. Via The Hill:

It’s a good thing that voters have moved against the prospect of one-party control of Congress for decades, Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) said.

Lieberman, an independent senator who caucuses with Democrats, acknowledged momentum for the GOP, and said that independents had become alienated from Democrats, who control both the House and the Senate.

“There were a lot of people, particularly Democrats, who were declaring after the 2008 election that we were beginning a period of Democratic dominance that would go on for decades,” Lieberman said during an interview with the conservative Newsmax magazine. “Now, all of a sudden, the momentum is with the Republicans. And that’s — thank God — that’s the way people have spoken, you know? That’s our democracy.”
