This is because of a little-known Senate organizing resolution, passed in January, which gives Democrats control of the Senate and committee chairmanships until the beginning of the 111th Congress."
Although back in February I tried to get someone from Harry Reid's office to confirm this but they wouldn't or couldn't or something - but you know I think if Lieberman's change would impact the committee assignments he would have done it by now....
