Principle versus Partisanship
Say what you will about Connecticut's three-term senator, but Joe Lieberman is someone who clearly demonstrates his commitment to political sincerity.
Watch the entire debate (linked to above, courtesy of C-SPAN), and then ask yourself who among the two participants is genuine, who among the two is resolved, who among the two doesn't chase political polls or change with a given day's prevailing wind?
Make no mistake, we do not agree with the senator on a great many issues...but that doesn't prevent us from recognizing and applauding his willingness to engage, to have substantive dialogue -- in essence, to lead by example.
