Over/under?

Two weeks.

Daschle is done, but it does make an opening for Howard Dean.

Dean really should have been first choice for that position. I
understand why Obama chose Daschle, but it was a bad move from the
start. I wouldn't blameDean if he was not interested in being "sloppy
seconds", but I have a feeling that if asked, his sense of duty to
country would override his personal feelings.

I agree. Just not a Daschle fan.

Me either. I suspect he didn't have the decency to make the move
himself, but Obama gave him the choice to withdraw or be withdrawn.

After the last eight years of GOP absolutely criminal horrors, Daschle's
lapses don't amount to a pimple on the commonweal.

Agreed, but the GOP never claimed they had any ethical standards.
Well, except no BJ's in the WH. But nothing restricting f**king the
American economy and people by giving Wall Street a BJ.
That was perfectly okay.
The Dems are claiming things have changed.
Putting lobbyist/taxcheat Daschle in the cabinet violates the claim.
Last thing this country needs is more limousine liberals.
I'm very happy the current administration has set a high bar for
ethics. It was refreshing to see Obama admit "I screwed up."
Per my usual rant, the problem the Dems have is being saddled with the
same globalist views they and the Reps have had for a couple decades
now.
Last year's trade deficit almost equals the proposed "stimulus" in $.
All the economists who supported the equity/housing bubbles and loss
of jobs are disgraced, but they are still influencing economic policy.
You can figure it out from there.
But temporary jobs created with more debt will *not* revive a moribund
economy which is guided by the same old globalist thinking.

I would be very surprised if Dean became Health Czar and HHH
Secretary.

A month?

My guess is that he is done. You overlook the fact that Dashle would
have been approved by the Senate. He withdrew because he was a
distraction. He's a distraction now, and he would be a distraction a
month from now.

According to Politico and The Hill, Dashle backed out because his
support in the Senate collapsed.
