Around the horn: musical chairs edition
Thoughts...disjointed...must...post...on...blog...
- Jeb Bush, special envoy to the Americas? Hey, it's not quite the White House but Michael Barone says he'd be perfect for the job.
- Speaker Pelosi? The American Prospect notes the "rather odd pincer dynamic that's emerged under her leadership, wherein various observers, activists, and members both to her left and to her right have expressed dissatisfaction with her." That and she gives us all reflux, etc.
- Henry Paulson is the new Treasury Secretary and message-bearer for a kick-ass economic picture.. Suitably Flip predicts: "1) the approval rating (for whatever its worth) of the President's handling of the economy will begin to rise steadily (as well it should), and 2) the media will quickly find themselves newly a-twitter with the word "shake-up".
- Mahmoud '08? Steven M. Warshawsky takes a look at the NY Times' canoodling Iran's president.
- Barack Obama for President? (This is a "when" question mark, not an "if" question mark.) Meanwhile, Lloyd Bentsen's is an opportunity to point out his ilk aren't lefty enough anymore for Democrats. Someone should contact Joe Lieberman.
