2. He better enjoy all the attention he's getting now

because when we pick up seats in the Senate this fall he will become irrelevant. Strip him of his Chairmanship and Committee assignments and boot him out of our caucus. Hey Joe, go Cheney yourself!!
before the next election. I think even the conservative democrats will turn their backs on him by then and if he doesn't turn republican by then or possibly even if he does, the republicans will find someone they can trust to run for the position. IMO, he's toast.
5. Maybe he's looking to be keynote speaker at the R convention this year
If so, it'll be his last shot at a national audience. He'll be fighting Zell Miller for relevance ratings, and having an uphill battle at that. I wonder what made him abandon all the social consciousness that made him a Democrat in the first place? Or was just lingering bitterness as having lost the D nomination in 2006? I'll bet he's still pissed (big time) about that. This is probably his idea of payback (probably read the book by Clarence Thomas for inspiration).
