Lieberman is still looking for love, according to this Boston Globe article.  He didn’t get what he wanted it seems from Harry Reid, so now looking for some love from Mitch McConnell.

Lieberman finds it “unacceptable” to lose his seat on Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.  I guess he should have considered that when he was Obama bashing.

My feeling is that he is hoping that this ploy will get him to keep his seat on the committee, and that by threatening to move, that Reid will just say “Fine, keep it.” to keep the caucus as close to 60 seats as possible.  On one hand, I want the caucus as strong as possible, so the attempts at a filibuster will be kept to a minimum.  On the other hand, I do feel something should be done for Joe’s disloyalty.  I’d sort of wish him on the GOP, but I am not one to cut off the opportunity to pass laws just to get some revenge.
