Senator Joe Lieberman to Speak at Republican National Convention Today

The Republican National Convention is back on track after a one day abbreviated convention session due to Hurricane Gustav.

Republicans say Fred Thompson and Joe Lieberman will speak on Tuesday at the Republican National Convention.

Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani had been scheduled to give the keynote address. But Thompson and Lieberman will take the podium instead. Republicans say the two will talk about McCain’s biography and their friendship with him.

Rudy Giuliani would be too much “red meat” for the GOP partisans. So, Team McCain will easy into a convention schedule with positive portrayals of John McCain by Fred Thompson and former Democrat Senator Joe Lieberman as the Democrats continue the relentless personal and anti-woman attacks on Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.
