It’s a big day for the Democrats and their friends in the MSM, as the Dems take control of Congress for the first time in 12 years. Here’s a mini-link roundup of stories, opinion pieces, and blogposts related to the swearing in of the 110th Congress:
Senator Joe Lieberman may have won the election as an independent, but there’s no doubt in anyone’s minds outside of the Nutroots that the guy is a solid Democrat and that he will, of course, caucus with the Dems.
Michael Calderone at the New York Observer reports that the NYT is reconsidering whether they should have a public editor for their newspaper:
Rep. Rahm Emanuel (D-IL) was nicer than he should have been in the face of the disruption. Of course he probably realizes that crowd, as part of the Nutroots faction, helped get his party elected to the majority, so showing a little ‘respect’ for Sheehan and Co. appeared to be what he chose to do in response. Taking sort of a “don’t bite the hand that feeds” approach.
