The Chronicle of Higher Education notes that when Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT) "created his own political party after losing the 2006 Connecticut Democratic primary, critics decried Connecticut for Lieberman as 'A Party of One.'"

"Two years later, his party not only has five candidates, it also has a new platform: 'The Connecticut for Lieberman Party rejects the fraud perpetrated on the members of this party and the citizens of Connecticut by Joe Lieberman.'"

Said one member: "I wouldn't be surprised to see a Connecticut for Lieberman candidate running against Joe Lieberman in 2012."
