Novak: Lieberman Warns McCain Against Picking Him more similar news »
Robert Novak, who retired after being diagnosed with a brain tumor, is back writing occasional columns throughout the election season.
"Reports of strong support within John McCain's presidential campaign
for Independent Democratic Sen. Joseph Lieberman as the Republican
candidate for vice president are not a fairy tale. Influential McCain
backers, plus McCain himself, would pick the pro-choice liberal from
Connecticut if they thought they could get away with it."
"But they can't get away with it -- and this has been made clear to McCain by none other than Joe Lieberman himself."

Clinton Expected to Make Case for Obama more similar news »
While most Democrats felt Sen. Hillary Clinton gave an outstanding speech last night in support of Sen. Barack Obama, one criticism is that she didn't make the case for why Obama is ready to be president. It's been the main Republican talking point for several weeks.
This morning, Obama campaign officials we've spoken to are unconcerned since they believe that Bill Clinton is better positioned as a former president to make that point in his speech tonight.
CNN quotes Clinton adviser Paul Begala: "I think things are actually progressing better than maybe some of us
might have thought in terms of the relationship between the two of them."

Biden's Night more similar news »
Walter Shapiro raises expectations for Sen. Joe Biden's speech tonight.
"For all of Barack Obama's eloquence, for all of the quiet confidence of
Michelle Obama, it may well be Biden's own star turn on Wednesday night
that provides the mile-high lift to the Democratic prospects in
November."
The main reason: "Biden is the only big-name speaker whose primary mission
is to pin the tail on John McCain... All signs, including guidance from the Obama and Biden camps, suggest
that the six-term Delaware senator will not back away from combat in
the erroneous zone, portraying McCain as a good man who has fallen into
bad company with conservative Republicans."
