The Lieberman maneuver
Regardless of Sen. Tim Johnson's health, Bush could easily hand the Senate back to the GOP -- by appointing the Connecticut senator to fill Bolton's slot at the U.N.

  • "institutional comity"...

    Wouldn't the Dems' *not* voting to confirm Lieberman simply be calling the Repubs' bluff on bipartisanship? Would the Dems really have anything to lose (at least, certainly in terms of a net loss), assuming they play it competently, by not confirming him?
