What's Wrong With Washington.
Fifty years ago, Rodgin Cohen would have walked into a job at Treasury and the country would have been much better for it. Today, he withdrew his name from consideration for a Treasury post. Lose talent like that and eventually you end up with second-stringers in first string positions.
I doubt there is a lawyer (or a banker, for that matter) in America who knows more about the financial crisis than Mr. Cohen. Whoever gets the job he wanted won't be half as good.

The Fight Will Go On....and On....And On.
Mickey Kaus has an excellent overview of why the fight over "card check" legislation will go on until the last dollar in campaign contributions has been extracted from labor and business. It's all about feeding the beast that is permanent Washington.
