Sounds good to me.

[oceanview]

true, but let's let the 2nd term start first before they start leaving.

Personally I think the entire cabinate should resign, then the president can ask any he wants to keep to stay on. I worry he might keep weak members out of sense of loyality. If they all resign then wont have that problem.

[Dog Gone]

It is commonplace for major cabinet changes in a second term. I would expect at least four in this Administration in the coming months. No biggie.

However there is JFK, after all, he was a prosecutor....

JFK would be a perfect Ambassador to one of the former French colonies in Africa. Take Teresa back to her homeland. :-)

I'm betting Powell. It is clear he has been unhappy for sometime. His soul was stolen by the career talkers at Foggy Bottom.

[engrpat]

I believe that tradition holds that all cabinet members will tender their resignations thus giving the president the option of asking them to stay or replace them.

I don't want Giuliani running for Prez, but he'd be a good A.G.

[Ptarmigan]

That's what I thought. Shouldn't the gallstone surgery have made Ashcroft recover fully.

[ventana]

Oh year, Rogan is great! V's wife.

[fightu4it]

Since we probably wont be able to sneak him onto the Supreme Court, can we give this job to Mark Levin?

[ladyinred]

Wish he wouldn't, but I understand. He has been trashed so bad, but the left will trash his replacement as well.

[Landru]

...FYI, sonny.

I think this was pretty well known a long time ago.

He's going to get his life back

[mrsmith]

The rumor ( lot's of rumors out about the Cabinet these days- I guess the Left figure if they can't have their own cabinet they'll try to rumor ours into something they like ) is it's his health.

I'd hate to see him go, he's the best man in the administration.

[cornfedcowboy]

Ashcroft is burned out big time. He buried his head after 9/11,worked 20 hr days for months on end. A good man- I wish him the best.

[Uncledave]

Rudy for AG!

[ottothedog]

I wish Bush had the guts to do that.

[Raycpa]

I like your thought. Replace Reinquest.
