Mr. Trebek, I’ll take Lieberman for a Thousand.

That’s right. Currently the Democrats are bidding for Connecticut senator’s vote. But from the line that Lieberman said at the press conference “I appreciate their respect for my independence of mind,” it’s going to be a hard sell. As of right now Lieberman still holds two seats one on the Committee on Homeland Security and the other on Governmental Affairs. The Democratic Caucus did remove him from two other committees. Even though the Democrats have a majority of the senate they don’t have enough to have a majority vote pass on just on the Democrats alone. Thus the need for someone who as Lieberman put it “a member in good standing” even if in the last election he wasn’t elected as a member of that party.

Here is the video and judge for yourself. It might take more then just allowing him to have two seats to buy him back on the Obama Band Wagon.
