WASHINGTON -- Joe Lieberman will not run for reelection in 2012, Connecticut Democratic sources tell HuffPost, ending his four-term Senate career. Two prominent House Democrats, Chris Murphy and Joe Courtney, are eyeing a bid, with Susan Bysiewicz, a thrice-elected former secretary of state, also jumping into the race.It would have been nice to watch him get his ass handed to him in the next election, but it will be nice to see him out of office regardless.
Lieberman, who lost a 2006 primary to netroots insurgent Ned Lamont, will announce his retirement on Wednesday. "Senator Lieberman made a decision about his future over the holidays which he plans to announce on Wednesday," a Lieberman spokesman said. In 2006, Lieberman ran under a party he created called Connecticut for Lieberman. Anti-Lieberman activists, however, have since taken it over.

The Connecticut for Lieberman Offices Go Dark...
The biggest asshole in the Senate and chairman for life of the Douche Caucus has finally redered himself so unelectable that he'll be forced into retirement at the end of this term.
