Is Bush Courting Lieberman?

Rumors that Sen. Joe Lieberman (D-CT) will replace Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld resurfaced again on Face the Nation:
Bob Schieffer: "Last night -- over this weekend, I had four different people tell me that the White House is thinking if the secretary of Defense goes over the next year -- and a lot of people think that he will, that the president is thinking of nominating Joe Lieberman to be secretary of Defense."
If it happened, Connecticut Gov. Jodi Rell (R) would likely appoint a Republican to fill Lieberman's seat. Kos explains the ramifications for Democrats.

As Raw Story notes, Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) called for Rumsfeld's dismissal today.
