Right now the balance of power in the Senate doesn't rest on Lieberman, it rests on the outcome of the State of Washington's senatorial race. If the Democrat wins the split will be 50-50, otherwise 51-49 in favor of the Republicans. Lieberman is a Democrat senator from Connecticut. If the issue of Florida isn't settled by January 19, 2000, he'll still be a Democrat Senator from New York. He won't resign unless Gore wins the election. I believe the Governor of Connecticut is a Republican and will appoint a Republican if Lieberman does resign. Then the split would be either 52-48 or 51-49 in favor of the Republicans, depending on the outcome of the vote in Washington state. My husband is speculating that if the Republican senatorial candiate wins in the state of Washington, and Gore wins the presidency, then Lieberman may resign the Vice President to maintain the balance of power at 50-50, and let Gore appoint another Vice President. It could be Clinton - Bill, that is. Hillary wouldn't give up her senate seat because New York Governor Pataki is a Republican.
