Lieberman refuses to close door on switching parties
November 12, 2006

HARTFORD, Conn. –Sen. Joe Lieberman on Sunday repeated his pledge to caucus with Senate Democrats when the 110th Congress convenes in January, but refused to slam the door on possibly moving to the Republican side of the aisle.

We want you to do what you think is right and good for our state and country,’ and I appreciate that.”
