Wouldn't it still be in Republican control thanks to Dick Cheney?  Bernie Sanders and Joe Lieberman will caucus with the Democrats, but they weren't elected as such, they were elected as Independents. 
No, they were elected as Senators. The vote for presiding officers is a vote like any other.

Btw, and unrelated. Just noticed that if the 2008 election goes to the House, Democrats now control at least 26 state delegations there.
