[Vision2020] Simple(ton) Announcement

[Tom Hansen]

But, then, I guess, to be totally fair . . .

When the Senate appoints members to investigative subcommittees (and there
will be many), many of these committees could consist of three Democrats,
three Republicans, and one Independent.  I mean, after all (as Courtney
reflects in his BLog) the Independents are not Democrats.  Can't get much
more fair than that, huh?

Lieberman says he will caucus with Dems.  Sanders always has.
