Is the vote about Lieberman secret from each other
or just from us? Obviously, they won't let US know how they're voting (a sure sign that they know they would pay the price).

I think it should also be anonymous in the sense that NO ONE knows how they're voting, not even other Senators. More of them would vote the right way if it were.

1. Cut Him Loose, Now...
if he votes all-Repub, he will lose in CT, anyway.

2. It's secret. Lawrence O'Donnell was just on Rachel (with Arianna) and said
that a senator could go up to Joe and tell him to his face that he/she will vote for him to keep his Chairmanship, and then turn around and vote against him.

3. Perfect.
Those pols love backstabbing even if it is for a good cause. Too cynical?

4. I would love it if that happened.
Who is more deserving than Joe? :rofl:

FWIW though, O'Donnell predicted that Joe would keep his Homeland Security Chair, but lose his chair on a lesser committee.
