He should just go into retirement or support the Party. Why should he run as an Independent? He lost his primary and that’s it. In a way, it looks like he’s trying to get back at his Party.

Irving Gruber

It’s disgusting – because he lost the primary, he runs as an Independent … he has no party loyalty at all. And I hope he loses. He doesn’t really identify strongly with theDemocratic Party. And also, I don’t consider Iraq a “marginal” issue.

I lived 25 years in Connecticut, and watched Lieberman do a very good job. However, I think he’s too Republican to be a Democrat. He’s going to carry a lot of Democratic faithful aware of his record. His Republican leanings may help him garner some of the Republican vote.

Joe Autorino

I hope he runs and I hope he beats whoever is running against him. We need Lieberman – he is independent-minded and an independent voice and both parties need him.

Peg Schroeder

I’m a Democrat, so I hope that [Lamont] pulls it off. It’s just people saying: “We don’t like your war – you supported it, and you supported Bush and we’re not going to vote for you.” Lieberman’s not going to give up and I don’t blame him.
