Harry Reid rewards Lieberman??
Neal Boortz is reporting this. Let's hope it's just more Boortz BS. Links only to a RW rag.......



Newly re-elected Sen. Joe Lieberman has been promised by Sen. Harry Reid – who is in line to become the next Senate Majority Leader – that he will support Lieberman’s efforts to become chairman of the powerful Homeland Security Committee.

3. More like a bribe to caucas with the democrats instead of the
Noble Opposition. Otherwise 50-50 tie and Dick Cheney decides.

4. Unfortunately, with 51-49, Lieberman has a lot of power.
"Strip me of my seniority? Don't make me chair? Fine. I'll go caucus with the Republicans."

Poof. Our "majority" is now 50-50, with Cheney breaking the tie.
