Reid Appears to be Backing Away from Lieberman for 2009.

His response to questions about whether Lieberman would be chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee is now, "Let’s talk about this year."

Not surprising. In addition to lying about the Democratic nominee, and endorsing the Republican, he's also been a craptacular committee chairman. No hearings on anything that might embarrass Bush and His Evil Minions^™, like the failures of Katrina.
