I’m not 100%

August 7, 2000 by Michael Boyle

sold on Joseph Lieberman in terms of his views on things – he’s a little loud with his moralizing, for one thing. But at the same time he seems like a reasonable guy who understands the difference between using one’s soapbox to encourage change and using one’s legislative influence to actually force marginally constitutional changes. Lieberman seems intelligent, and capable of making distinctions between shades of grey, which is a positive thing. My big fear is that the ticket is very much a policy wonk ticket – these guys are serious fellows, not a lot of star quality. Which frankly I prefer, but could hurt them in the election. But then again, I don’t have a vote.
