Uprising on the left

I’m not the only one annoyed with Obama. There are many groups on the left just as annoyed. I'll stick to one example, though many are listed in this article. Is Obama so weak he can't rein in Joe Lieberman? And, yes, the prez. has leverage over an independent -- he can work to oust Lieberman from committee chairmanships. And with a weak prez. progressive congresscritters just might assert themselves in the reconciling process, whether Obama wants them to or not. It's my understanding that bills that are reconciled between the Senate and House are not subject of filibuster.
