Sen. Lieberman is the senior Democrat on the Homeland Security committee. What's in it for ... Connecticut?" PHOTO 2: [Timothy A. Knibbs] "It's unfortunate that to be taken seriously for an office such as this that you either have to spend millions of dollars out of your own pocket or be a career politician." PHOTO 3: [Alan Schlesinger] "[Joe Lieberman] is the most liberal senator in U.S. history. Ned, he's even more liberal than you. There's good news. You have an alternative. You can vote for Alan Schlesinger." PHOTO 4: [Joseph I. Lieberman] "We cannot, we will not stay in Iraq forever. We need to stay there as long as there is a reasonable prospect with our help to build a free and independent Iraq." PHOTO 5: [Ralph A. Ferrucci] "I'm not a politician. I drive a truck for a living. One thing that bothers me is when politicians sit here and say they support the working class ... like all the candidates here are saying."
