    “Lieberman, a former Democrat who supports Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) for president, is likely to lose his gavel on the Homeland Security Committee he has chaired since January 2007, say the sources who see him being replaced by Sen. Daniel Akaka (Hawaii), the committee’s third-ranking Democrat.

    Lieberman spokesman Marshall Witmann dismissed the speculation, saying Lieberman “is focused on doing all he can to elect John McCain as president rather than post-election Washington politics.””

    Didn’t see this coming…sarcasm

    Gee, that may explain why he said (in an interview with the Hartford Courant Sunday) that he really likes and respects Obama and *never* says anything bad about him.

    Recall recall recall (except the R governor of Ct. would appoint his replacement.)

    And the ancient 90 year old Sen. Byrd is going to be pushed out of his chairmanship on the powerful Appropriations committee.

    I love to watch his speeches, but he’s not strong enough to run that committee anymore.
