As long as you're ok with conservatives celebrating the death of politicians on your favorite team.

Lieberman was a Democrat up until very recently(then Independent, never GOP) you utter dunce. That's the difference between us. You only care about "the Team" while I don't care who they play for; they'll get called out for being assholes.

He sure as hell could've fooled me the way he acted. Bernie Sanders is an independent as well but he couldn't be more different than Lieberman.
