The US Senate will be equally split 50 Republicans and 50 Democrats
when Lincoln Chafee stuns the political world by declaring himself
a Democrat. Whereupon Joe Lieberman immediately declares himself a
Republican returning the Senate to 50-50 and under Republican control.


All too feasible, but I wouldn't call 50-50 "Republican Control". Despite
the VP's role in ties, I'm not sure that that's as important as the
agreements in place to divvy up Committee Chairs. Plus, 51-50, would mean
that the GOP took a drubbing today,

Um, 51-50 would mean something else...at least it would be VERY
interesting...

HTH,
