Commentary By Ron Beasley
Bernie Sanders may be the Senator from Vermont but he is America's Senator.
Sanders is the only member of the Democratic caucus to publicly oppose the Senate legislation, and it�s unclear if he would still vote for cloture but oppose the final bill. Still, Sanders� objections raise new doubts about whether Reid has the votes to file cloture on the bill tomorrow and pass it before Christmas.
There are two independents in the Democratic caucus - Joe Lieberman wants the Democrats to fail Bernie Sanders wants them to succeed. Joe Lieberman is a sociopath- Bernie Sanders is a human being. It may take independent Bernie Sanders to save the Democrats from themselves.
I'm with Russ Feingold:This bill appears to be legislation that the president wanted in the first place, so I don�t think focusing it on Lieberman really hits the truth.
