What the hell is an "independent democrat?" Joe Lieberman just
called himself that. The Dems should not allow him to use that tag in November.

3. That can't be legal, can it?
He lost the Democratic primary. He can't run as a Democrat anything.

4. He can call himself whatever he wants...
But on the ballot he will be listed as an independent...and that is what he is no matter what stupid label he applies to himself!

6. The ballot will say "Connecticut for Lieberman"
I don't know if there is any legal recourse to his calling himself an "Independent Democrat" in speeches and commericals.
