In the article Lieberman Mum on How He’ll Vote for Gov. Lieberman’s inability to make a decisive stance out of fear of losing popularity is once again pointed out. When asked who he would support for Governor (Republican Gov. M. Jodi Rell or Democratic New Haven Mayor John DeStefano) Lieberman insisted his position is to remain “private”. And this comment is pointed out after DeStefano said that he would support Liberman’s Democratic opponent Ned Lamont due to his “energy and commitment”. After losing the primaries and running again as an independent, Lieberman acknowledges that he is putting the Democrats in an awkward position, and because of that, he wants to stay ot of their races. And when asked whether or not he believed the House would be better off being in the majority of the Democrats, Lieberman said ” I haven’t thought about that enough to give that an answer”.

This shows how clueless Lieberman is, and the rest of the politicians for that matter, who would respond to such a pertinent and relevant question with a dumbfounded answer. Are we losing touch of the final goal? Wouldn’t one think that whether or not the outcome of such a race would be something far more important than the road there? It seems as if the means is greater than the end. And this goes deeper than this ignorant politician- it reaches out to each individual who lives their life without regard to what the goal is, but rather how much material, popularity and power they can collect on the way. This goes into another issue in itself… to be discussed at a later date.

Lieberman seems to be stuck in a weird political stance at this point, as if everyone around him is pointing at him as he tries to slip into office. And his tactic is just to stand still and pretend that no one can see him- hopefully everyone will just disregard asking involved questions if he just refuses to take a stance on anything. Because after all, its much less scary when everyone passes you off because of your passive demeanor and picks you in the end because everyone else is too controversial. Oh, the political tactics are oozing in this race.
