At this time, Mr. Pterodactyl would like to announce that he is officially endorsing Senator Joe Lieberman for the Democratic nomination for President of the United States. Senator Lieberman is the only (serious) candidate who has been completely consistent and honest about his positions, not pandering to the far left as others (I'm looking at you, Kerry, Clark, Gephardt... Oh, you know) have done, in particular on the Iraq war. The war on terrorism is too serious a matter to be reduced to a political ploy. Sadly, consistency and honesty do not fire the imagination of the angry liberal portion of the public which has embraced Dean. Nevertheless they are the very qualities, in fact the only qualities, that can lift up the Democratic party and bring it victory.

For those of you who see political opportunism in this endorsement, who envision an inevitable Pterodactyl vs. Clinton race in 2008, all I have to say is: it's not too soon to start sucking up.


UPDATE: I'm not saying I'll vote for Joe over GW, but I'll think about it, which is more than I can say for any of those other schmucks.
