The news is out. U.S. Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., lost a chairmanship for supporting the Republican presidential candidate -- just not the chairmanship people expected him to lose.
Lieberman will no longer lead a subcommittee that has jurisdiction over the Environmental Protection Agency. He, however, will continue to chair the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.
It looks like Lieberman lucked out.
Were Democrats right in telling him he can't lead the subcommittee? Should he have lost the more prestigious chairmanship instead? Did Democrats play it smart?
I guess the answers to these questions depend on who you ask.
