In order to preserve what the Supreme Court perceives as its integrity, the Court doesn't like to go around reversing its prior decisions willy-nilly just because a justice retires and a new one is appointed. If the balance shifted with a new appointment and a similar issue came up again, the liberals would be very unlikely to reverse Citizens United outright. They would be much more likely to narrow the holding in a way that took most of the teeth out of it. That's generally how they do things.
