Lieberman can't decide which party he belongs to

You can't say we didn't tell you. He just said he doesn't know if the Democrats should win the '06 election. I doubt this will wake many people up that have the power to do something about this. But if they did. A start would be—you know–supporting the real Democratic candidate named Ned Lamont.

Joe Lieberman is declining to say whether he thinks it would be a good thing if Dems win control of the House of Representatives. Lieberman — who needs GOP votes as an independent — was asked in an interview published today in the Hartford Courant whether America would be better off if his lifelong party took back the House. The Courant reports that Lieberman responded: "Uh, I haven't thought about that enough to give an answer." Lieberman also wouldn't say whether he'd vote for Dem John DeStefano, Jr., for governor, who, as the Courant noted wryly, is "mayor of the city where Lieberman has lived since the 1960s."
