Lieberman, McCain not really crossing party lines

CNN: "Sen. Joe Lieberman is crossing party lines and endorsing Republican Sen. John McCain for president."

Article

Not really. He's really just proving that 1.) McCain is not really a Republican and 2.) Lieberman is not really a Democrat. They're both some sort of wishy washy moderates; party-line saboteurs who are recognized less for crossing the red-blue divide and more for turning purple. Announcement: no one wants a purple president.

If nothing else had nailed the coffin in McCain's campagin by this point, getting endorsed by a democratic senator and former VP candidate on the Democratic ticket ought to do it. You certainly don't see him raising 6 million dollars in one day.

Apparently he missed the part of running on the Republican ticket that includes looking good to Republicans. It's called rallying your base, and it's something you need to win primaries.
