If Reid can't wrangle through this one without the President Elect holding his hand, it should raise serious questions as to whether Senator Dry White Toast is strong enough to carry Obama's agenda through the Senate.

"We are going to referee decisions about who should or should not be a committee chair," Obama transition spokesperson Stephanie Cutter emailed me. "President-elect Obama looks forward getting some serious payback, and he'd have no problem at all if Sen. Lieberman decides to caucus with the Republicans. We hold grudges."
There we go. That's what the country needed to hear!
The move is all but certain to take the steam out of any efforts to dislodge Lieberman from the committee
Absolute, utter hogwash.
"The move" does exactly what Obama needs to do, which is to shove this janitorial discussion off the Commander In Chief's desk and back into Harry Reid's lap where it belongs. If Senator Milk & Crackers can't muster the balls to deal with his own Senate, then maybe the Senate needs to find someone with a pair (read: Hillary).
Obama has bigger fish to fry than helping move Lieberman's office to the storage room.

Lieberman is a harmless loser. He's been depanted and defanged and I don't want the President Elect wasting five minutes of his time worrying about Lieberman.
And as anyone who's watched him knows, he won't.
]]>The obvious first choice is Fredo, except that Fredo was never really conniving so much as he was just dumb.
I'm thinking it's Sal, Carlo, or Hyman Roth.

]]>Being tied with Norm Coleman in a state as blue as MN is like being tied with a spent douche nozzle. If Franken loses this race it will have nothing to do with money. It will have everything to do with his campaign being inept and Minnesotans being flakes.
If that pisses Minnesotans off, then go vote and prove me wrong. I'll be happy to eat crow.
]]>I voted for Russ when his big-person teeth were coming in, but his role in this presidential election has been nonexistent but for a "slip" to the Sentinel about how much he admired McClown. My hunch: There's a rift between Russ and Obama that isn't being reported.

]]>Don't forget it.
Leave it on the ice, as they say in hockey.
]]>Call your local Obama office and ask what they need. Volunteer, phone bank, canvass, drive people to the polls.
Leave it all on the field, as they say in football.
