Here’s what I predicted on November 8, 2006:

In 2008, John McCain and Joe Lieberman will join forces and make a run for the Whitehouse.

Some called me crazy when I posted it.

But it’s not looking so crazy anymore:

Former Dem Lieberman endorses McCain

HILLSBOROUGH, N.H. - Sen. John McCain, trying to keep momentum in this state’s critical Republican primary race, brought in something unusual on Monday — an endorsement from the other party’s former vice presidential nominee.

Sen. Joseph Lieberman, Democrat Al Gore’s running mate in 2000, said he had intended to wait until after the primaries to make a choice for the 2008 presidential race. But McCain asked for his support and no Democrat did.

Lieberman, an independent who caucuses with the Democrats, said he chose his longtime Senate colleague because he has the best shot of breaking partisan gridlock in Washington. Both men also support the war in Iraq.

I wish picking lottery numbers was as easy.
