Daily Kos has the low-down on the new Senate leadership, and it's all good news for Chuck Schumer (and thus for us, his loyal constituents):

Charles E. Schumer, Vice Chair of the Conference The third ranking member of the Democratic leadership, Senator Schumer will serve as Vice Chair of the Conference. In this post, Schumer will oversee strategy and policy to keep and build support for Democratic values.

There's more:

Charles E. Schumer, Chairman of Campaign Committee In addition to his role as Vice Chair of the Conference, Senator Schumer will once again serve as Chairman of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC).

Considering the outstanding job he did, it's very heartening that Senator Schumer is going to continue guiding the DSCC. On a side note, the Rs have picked Mel Martinez of Florida to run the RNC, now that twinkle-toes has departed; not sure whether that's a good move, but hey - it's their funeral.
