Even tho Lieberman would caucus with the Dems, in terms of majority and/or majority/minority ratios for Committees, it'd still be one less (official) Dem, wouldn't it ? I wonder how that would work in a worst case scenario if the GOP lost several seats in November.
With the retirement of Jumpin Jim Jeffords, under the "Lieberman wins as an independent" scenario, would he then be the only Independent?
I think the Socialist Sanders is running for a Senate seat and will win in Vermont.
