Just two weeks after addressing a synagogue in Surfside, Sen. Joe Lieberman will be back in South Florida campaining for Republican John McCain.
The former Democratic nominee for vice president is scheduled to speak at Temple Solel in Hollywood on Aug. 7. His frequent presence in South Florida during the 2000 campaign triggered jokes about him being Florida's third senator and scouring local real estate listings.
Lieberman's return trip reflects a big push by the McCain campaign to make inroads in the Jewish community, which has been awash in false rumors that Democrat Barack Obama has ties to Islamic terrorists.
Lieberman has been in South Florida more than Wexler.

Remember when Republicans called him Joseph Lie-berman?
Hmmm.
