7. If Lieberman took the seat, he's done. No more elections
Seriously, if he takes the seat, he has to give up the Senate seat which would go to a republican because of the governor of Connecticut, but there's another election just around the corner.

Lieberman would be finished in politics after taking the DHS assignment. He would never be elected again because he would not run for office for four years.

IMO, it's worth it to lose a Senate seat for the short term to get his ass out!
