Predictions
Just for the record, I have a prediction on today's elections. I think the Democrats will win 232 House seats, 30 Governor's races, and 49 Senate seats, with the Republicans holding 49 seats, and two independents in the Senate, including Joe Leiberman. Given how often Leiberman votes with the Republicans, and given that this is the second time in three Senate races where most Democrats voted for his opponent, and most Republicans voted for him (the first time national Republicans were on a mission to oust liberal Republican Lowell Weicker with a more conservative Democrat), I am not at all sure he will vote to confirm a Democratic majority leader.
If Leiberman has no plans to seek a fourth term, I'm certain he'd cast a tie-breaking vote for a Republican Senate leader.
