Leavin' Lieberman?

The headline overpromises a bit, but the Politico is reporting that Joe Lieberman could switch parties over Iraq war funding. "I have no desire to change parties," they quote Lieberman as saying in an interview. "If that ever happens, it is because I feel the majority of Democrats have gone in a direction that I don't feel comfortable with."

Such a switch would cause control of the Senate to revert to the Republicans. Time also reports on Lieberman's new leverage.
