Actor Alec Baldwin recently told Playboy Magazine that he is tire of Sen. Joe Lieberman’s moderate politics and may move to Connecticut to run against the senator in the next Senate race.
Baldwin told Playboy, “I’d love to run against Joe Lieberman. I have no use for him.”
On his online blog, Baldwin backed down a bit and wrote he will not be moving to Connecticut, as much as he believes Lieberman is a letdown to the Democratic Party.
Lieberman is up for reelection in 2012 and said he would welcome Baldwin’s challenge. “You know, I mean, I must say that I respect Alec Baldwin as an actor as a comedian, and if he wants to run, that’s his right,” Lieberman said on CNN. “Make my day.”

Lieberman, an independent senator the Democrats are counting on as they consider outflanking the GOP on health care legislation showed signs of wavering Sunday, Aug. 23, 2009, when he urged President Barack Obama to postpone many of his initiatives because of the economic downturn.

Carpetbagger Baldwin is a first class IDIOT Lefitst Hollywierdo.
He promised in 2000 that if Bush was elected he would leave the country. That is the only reason I voted for him. And this ahole is still here!?
Who did he think he is? Just because he has a few movie fans and all of a sudden he becomes somebody? This guy is not a even a great actor, let alone a politician! And his personal life is kind of a mess too. By the way, was he sober when he made this comments about Lieberman? Or is he just a stupid radical left, communist sympathizer?
Got something to say?
