Lieberman Endorses McCain

Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT), who calls himself an "Independent Democrat" has crossed the party aisles to endorse John McCain for president. One war hawk for another. No surprise here. Lieberman's support for the Iraq war cost him the support of the Democratic party in 2006, so he became an Independent and won anyway. Lieberman's endorsement is expected to greatly help McCain in New Hampshire's primary, where that state's unaffliated voters (who number 40% of the total) can vote in either party's primary.
