Back to the Future

MANIFESTO

Give me strength.
Joe Lieberman ... who was the [Democratic] party's vice-presidential nominee in 2000 but now calls himself an "Independent Democrat" after his 2006 primary loss, says friends have asked him if he's going to become a Democrat again in time to run for reelection in 2012. And, The Hill reports, if he's not exactly jumping at the prospect, he isn't ruling it out, either.

"It’s a ways away," Lieberman told the paper. "I'm an independent Democrat, and that gives me options."
The state's junior senator will be a not-so-spry 70 years old in 2012. One has to hope that one of his "options" is retirement.
