Last night I claimed victory in the Lieberman bet I made with a friend so many months ago. (To recap: I bet that the Dems would not bounce Lieberman as committee chair even if they got 57 members in the caucus.) Last night, I invited my opposite number to concede defeat.
Well, yesterday I was in court all day. When I checked my voicemail today, there was one message. It was a gracious concession, delivered only minutes after the Democratic cave to Joe was announced, and prior to the Begich victory. The concession preceded the demand.
So, my wife and I get a free meal after the first of the year. I’ll say again, I wish that we were the ones footing the bill. It just goes to show that every cloud has a silver lining. Loathsome Joe is, at least, the occasion for us to get back together with friends from way back.
