    After the Judd Gregg withdrawal because of differences in opinion, President Obama will be on his FOURTH Treasury Secretary NOMINEE. Wow\. Surely we could not have envisioned this. Former President ONLY HAD 4 PRESS SECRETARIES

      Yes but he did not have four different press secretaries in the first month of his administration.

        I believe Obama's working on his third, not fourth, Commerce Secretary pick. In this case Gregg is the one with egg on his face, not Obama.

          I agree.  It shows Obama is willing to work with those who do not necessarily agree with them, where they are having a tough time putting their partisan values away.  However, if Gregg truly believes he made a mistake, I give him credit for withdrawing and saying so early on.

    Why wouldn't we expect it?  Who the heck would want the job at this point in time?  Nothing on Obama.

    It looks like Obama has run out of his free passes for selecting tax cheats.  It's hard work digging someone out of the woodwork who AGREES with Obama and actually pays his taxes.  Ah poor Obama, the great stimulator.

      Are you suggesting that Judd Gregg was a tax cheat?
