Light for Joe?

It seems that Joe Lieberman is going to remain with the Democratic party in the senate. But under the conditions that he give up his place as subcommittee chairman. Whether or not Joe remains with the democrats, with his subcommittee or with both, is being decided today by democrats by secret ballot. Rather than enduring fatal damage to his political career because of McCain's loss, it seems Lieberman may pull through this one. President-elect Obama told Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid that Lieberman should remian with the Democratic party and caucus with them in the Senate. Following this, Harry Reid told Lieberman that he thinks it would be quote "unacceptable" for him to retire his position on the subcommittee.
