  We propose spontaneously breaking technicolor, thus liberating techniquarks
and suppressing large resonance contributions to the electroweak $S$ parameter.
The dynamics is modeled by a fermion bubble approximation to a single massive
techni--gluon exchange potential. This contains a Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model
with additional interactions. ``Virtual'' vector mesons occur and contribute to
$S$, and their effects are studied. Models of broken technicolor are discussed.
