Lieberman to run as Independent

Asked Wednesday if there was anyone who could call and persuade him to drop out, Lieberman told NBC's "Today" show:

"Respectfully no. I'm committed to this campaign."

"I'll always take the calls of friends, but my mind is made up," he said. "I'm going forward. I'm going forward because I'm fed up with all the partisanship in Washington that stops us from getting anything done."

A Junto statement if I ever heard one!

Agreed. He's a man of high principles who has the right attitude. Poor Joe is going to have to take the hard road, but my money's on him come November.

Aside: Joe losing this race would really hurt the Dems down the road.
