DENVER — Connecticut delegates are demanding that party leaders punish Sen. Joe Lieberman, the Democrat-turned-Independent, because of his support of Sen. John McCain (Ariz.), the Republican nominee.

For many of them, Lieberman’s plan to speak at next week’s Republican convention in St. Paul, Minn., is the latest offense from the man who represented their state as a Democrat in Washington for 18 years.

“There has to be some kind of penalty for this sort of thing,” said Martha Aasen, a delegate from Westport, Conn.

No, not really.

He's not in your party anymore. He's not subject to your rules, discipline, or crying.

Pound sand.

Pound sand - better yet, cast another vote for Ned Lamont.

I thought they already kicked him out of the party. What is this, the freakin' Mafia?
