Joe Lieberman is from the "Connecticut for Lieberman" party.<BR/><BR/>Why do your reporters keep using false and erroneous labels trying to connect this senator who was rejected by the Democratic party in the 2006 primary to the Democrats?<BR/><BR/>Did you used to call Senator Jim Jeffords of Vermont an "independent Republican"?
