The Senate, BTW

As of this writing, 49 D, 49 R and 2 Independents. The Republicans have the advantage of Cheney's vote in tie situations.

If Lamont had won, it'd have been 50 D, 49 R, and 1 Independent who had long caucused with Democrats.

So, seems we won the Senate too, but it really would have been better if Lamont had been elected as a true blue Dem rather than having the liberated and not-dependable Lieberman in office. The Senate really did hang on the balance of the Lieberman/Lamont race.
