'''Joseph Isadore Lieberman''', born February 24, 1942 (age {{age|1942|2|24}}), is an independent United States Senator from [[Connecticut]]. He was the vice presidential nominee of the Democratic Party in 2000; he and [[Al Gore]] lost.  Lieberman tried for the 2004 Democratic nomination but had little support and dropped out. He was defeated in the Democratic primary in summer 2006, but ran as an independent that fall and was reelected to the Senate. He continues to caucus with the [[Democratic Party]], and thereby has become chairman of the Homeland Security Committee. He is a liberal on most domestic issues but has a very strong conservative record on foreign policy.  He endorsed and campaigned enthusiastically for Republican [[John McCain]] in 2008.

 

In a strange display of voter choice: Most of the Connecticut voters who voted for Lieberman in 2000 opposed him in 2006; most of the people who opposed him in 2000 voted for him in 2006. Yet Lieberman himself did not change positions on any major issue.
