I'm very glad Clark pointed out the hypocrisy of Lieberman, Lieberman deserves to be held accountable for that jackass statement which I still remember. And, I dislike Lieberman for his support of neo-con policy and his anti-dissent statements. However...

I don't think there is anything "morally" wrong with Lieberman running as an independent (eventhough it makes him a poor Democrat, he can argue he is being loyal to his constituents more than his party)...I do think all the independent voters (50% or so of the population, I believe) of Connecticut deserve that choice. In fact, I would like to see Lieberman run and be rejected by all the people of Connecticut, not just the Democratic primary voters. I think that would be the ideal outcome. It can be argued that Lieberman is running as an independent to for selfish reasons, or to give all of his constituents a say in his fate, or both. Either way, I hope he loses and Lamont wins.
