For general discussion and debate. Possible talking point: Joe Lieberman Endorses John McCain for President:

"Being a Republican is important. Being a Democrat is important. But you know what's more important than that? The interest and well-being of the United States of America," the Democrat-turned Independent said in announcing his decision Monday morning in New Hampshire.

"Let's put the United States first again, and John McCain is the man as president who will help us do that," he said.

Months ago, I opined to friends, family, and colleagues that the GOP ticket could be McCain/Lieberman. Is this possible? How does this announcement change the landscape if at all?
