MSNBC and Roll Call are reporting that moments ago on the Senate floor, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) read a letter from Vice President-elect Joe Biden, announcing his retirement from the Senate. Biden had has been a senator from Delaware since 1972.
Last month, a Biden spokesperson said the vice president-elect intended to remain in the Senate long after President-elect Barack Obama stepped down from his own seat in Illinois in case he was needed for a “critical vote.”
Now that there seems to be little chance that an economic stimulus package will be ready for a vote before Inauguration Day, it doesn’t look like Biden will be urgently needed in the upper chamber before he takes his new office.
Update: MSNBC reports the resignation is effective Thursday. The headline has been updated to reflect this. Apologies for the omission.

That he delayed his resignation incase a critical vote was needed shows what a true ptriot Joe Biden is. Finally competent leadership is on the way. God bless you Joe Biden.

Good – I should definitely pronounce, impressed with your site. I had no trouble navigating through all the tabs as well as related information ended up being truly easy to do to access. I recently found what I hoped for before you know it in the least. Quite unusual. Is likely to appreciate it for those who add forums or anything, website theme . a tones way for your customer to communicate. Excellent task..

Definitely one of many challenges which people beginning a new on-line firm face is that of obtaining guests to their web site.
