Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT) isn’t ruling out the possibility that he would run for re-election in 2012 as a Republican — which would certainly be an odd situation for the 2000 Democratic nominee for vice president.

“I don’t know what I’ll run as,” Lieberman told CNN. “I like being an independent, so that’s definitely a possibility. I’d say that all options are open.”

“It’s unlikely that I would run as a Republican,” he added, “but I wouldn’t foreclose any possibility.”
