Democrats in the Senate decided Tuesday that Joe Lieberman may keep his committee chairmanship — even though he campaigned for Republican John McCain.

Democrats secretly voted 42 to 13 to let him remain chairman of the Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee.

His only sanction was being removed from the Environment Committee.

Democratic Party insiders now say Joe Lieberman will be allowed to remain in the Democratic Caucus and he’ll likely retain his chairmanship of the Homeland Security Committee.

His only punishment for supporting Republican John McCain and speaking at the Republican Convention will reportedly be the loss of his chairmanship of the not-exactly prestigious Environment and Public Works Committee.

Despite an impressive ground effort in some states, Republican John McCain lost to Democrat Barack Obama. Jon Seaton is John McCain's regional campaign manager, and he was in charge of two key states: Ohio and Pennsylvania.
