As the Cabinet turns

Not that my opinion counts for anything, but I have been impressed by the quality of Obama’s Cabinet picks. Clinton to State, Governors Richardson and Napolitano to Commerce and Homeland Security respectively, Eric Holder to Justice, and New York Federal Reserve president Geithner to Treasury – this is a list of very talented, very smart people rather than a bunch of ideological soul mates (see Rumsfeld, Donald) or hack political operatives (Michael “Heckuva job” Brown) that have plagued the Executive Branch of late. BTW, I say Alberto Gonzales had a clown shoe firmly planted on both sides of that divide.

As the Bush years have pretty much ruined everything, it is good to see that some adults will be in charge for a change. We are going to need it.
