I have a hard time believing that Obama's appointments could have gone any worse.
Tom Daschle was a major blow to Obama's agenda. Though I find this to be a good excuse why the American tax system needs to be changed.
Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner was really lucky that we are in such a mess that Republicans and moderate Democrats thought any delay would be a catastrophe.
Governor Bill Richardson always struck me as a guy with several skeletons in his closet. Nevertheless, it would have been nice to use his experience.
Now we got Senator Judd Gregg which just goes to show that Obama was not suspicious enough of his nominees. The Obama crew should have interviewed the hell out of him. It seems to me that at this point to claim he just wasn't on board as an accuse is just pretty damn dumb.
At least Obama's crew kicked him to the curb in their press release.
Fivethirtyeight has a good blog on Gregg.
