bobo brooks: lieberman is a principled, gutsy, gutsy guy

* bobo brooks on lehrer:
"DAVID BROOKS, Columnist, New York Times: Lieberman is the most moderate Democrat in the Senate. And we saw a lot of the moderate Democrats get wiped away in the last 12 years, and I think in this election we're going to see a lot of moderate Republicans get wiped away, and the parties are going to be a little more polarized.
[]
But as you go forward, they're thinking, "What do we do? Do we want to sign on with John Kerry's thing and get out very quickly?" And they both say no. And so they're really stuck with a war they didn't agree with the operation of, but they want to keep at it, and I think they're both principled, gutsy, gutsy guys."
