Despite losing the primary Lieberman will go on.

Joe Lieberman senator from Connecuit lost his primary yesterday. He vows to go on however as an independent.

Here is part of an AP story.

Hours after losing his Democratic primary to an anti-war businessman, Sen. Joe Lieberman vowed to continue his run for a fourth term as an independent, saying Wednesday that he had to do it for the good of the country and no one could persuade him to drop out.

"I'll always take the calls of friends, but my mind is made up," Lieberman told NBC's "Today" show Wednesday. "I'm going forward. I'm going forward because I'm fed up with all the partisanship in Washington that stops us from getting anything done."

Asked if there was anyone who could call and get him to change his mind, Lieberman replied:
"Respectfully no. I'm committed to this campaign."

What are you thoughts? Should he continue to try to win his seat back? Do you believe the war was the biggest issue? Any other thoughts you may have a bout Joe.
