Oh, this is rich...

Not content to abuse his "independent" status to force Senate Democrats to back down against the Bush regime and the neoconservative political agenda, Joe LIEberman is now threatening a "third party" run for the White House.

Joe Lieberman said Monday a third-party candidate could emerge to shake things up in the 2008 presidential race unless the two major parties tackle the growing problem of partisan polarization that alienates many voters.

It is a sick joke for a senator who has done so much to polarize the nation and engage in partisan politics (in favor of neoconservative Republicans, remember) to now call for an end to the very thing he uses to further widen the political divide in this country.
