Weicker Jr. on Monday criticized Senator Joseph I. Lieberman's continued support of the war in Iraq and said that if no candidate challenged the senator on the issue in the 2006 election, he would consider running.
Updating earlier story that said he wouldn't run

Lieberman defeated Weicker by about 10,000 votes in 1988. Since then Weicker has left the Republican party and was elected governor as an independent in 1990. He endorsed Bill Bradley in 2000 and Howard Dean in 2004.
