Could be -- and I'm sure that the same hard-Left Democrats who showed him no loyalty in 2006 will consider his failure to give deference to them in 2008.
U.S. Sen. Joseph Lieberman, an independent who supports Democrats in Congress despite his backing of the Iraq war, said on Thursday he was not ruling out endorsing a Republican in the White House race.The 2000 Democratic vice presidential candidate said he also wants to see if an independent enters the crowded field of 2008 presidential hopefuls.
"I'm going to chose whichever candidate that I think will do the best job for our country, regardless of the party affiliation of that candidate," the Connecticut senator told reporters in the state capital Hartford.
"I'm not going to get involved until after both parties have their presumptive nominees and, frankly, to see if there is a strong independent candidate," he said.
That does present some interesting possibilities, doesn't it.
Hmmmmm.... Thompson-Lieberman 2008. Does have an interesting ring to it, dontha think?

Comments on Lieberman To Back GOP Prez In 2008?
That would be fantastic. Thompson displayed his disloyalty to our country by undercutting an investigation into the 2nd worst president in our nation's history (Nixon) and Lie-berman is the lap dog of the worst president in our nation's history (W). Having them both on one ticket would be kind of like an Aldrich Ames - Benedict Arnold ballot.
