Whiny Joe after the election of 2004 had this to say about politicians coming second (insert sexual pun of your choosing):
Ezra Klein: Lieberman on Mandates ... but there's no prizes for second place in American politics.
Uhh, yeah, unless then one runs as an Independent to try again by other means. In Lieberman's puny solipsistic mind, does he calculate that since he lost to Lamont 104,753 to 115,106, all he needs to do is persuade 20,000 Republicans to vote for him? Somehow, in the real world, you'd think about 85,000 of Lieberman's Democratic primary supporters would vote for the Democratic candidate, Lamont. In a state that reliably votes Democratic, how many Republicans does Whiny Joe think he can fellate before November? (Karl Rove has already volunteered to be first in line)
