I still think we should offer Lieberman head of Armed Services and oust Warner and get Lieberman to caucus with us.

Wait a minute! Why should Lieberman play ball with a party that doesn't even know if it has control of the Senate yet? Republicans could lose even more senate seats in 2008. If Lieberman caucused with the Republicans next year, he would poison his relationship with the rest of the senate DemocRATS. In two years, Presisdent Bush will be out of office, but Lieberman will still have four more years to serve on the term to which he was elected yesterday with hopes of getting reelected in 2012. Lieberman will be 65 in February; he could easily serve another two or three terms if he remains healthy. I don't think he'd jeorpardize his future in the Senate by caucusing with Republicans in 2007.

I know but I was thinking of a way to get rid of Warner without getting a Dim in charge of Armed Services like Ms. Clinton.
