Does Senator Lieberman’s Death Toll for His Centrist ‘No Labels’ Movement?
The passing of the one-time Democrat who became an independent comes as the centrist group is struggling to find candidates to run on the No Labels line.

Does Senator Lieberman’s demise signal the death knell for a No Labels 2024 presidential ticket? A Democrat-turned-independent four-term senator from Connecticut, Mr. Lieberman was the founding chairman of the centrist third-party group. He died Wednesday after a fall at the age of 82.
The running mate to Vice President Gore in 2000 and a contender for Senator McCain’s running mate on the 2008 Republican ticket, Mr. Lieberman didn’t just talk the talk of bipartisanship and centrism. He lived it. He was the elder statesman that lent heft to No Labels’ effort — derided by politicos on both sides of the aisle — to field a “unity ticket” in 2024.
