Listening to Rush for 'the latest'.
Thanks for the thread, Howlin.
I 'm not feeling too great about this. Worrying that this may be a 'too cute by half' rush to name, to change the subject of the media.
I don't think it's a rush to name somebody; he's known who he wanted for a long time, IMO.
Actually this is one of the longest periods between a retirement announcement and the naming of a nominee, so I wouldn't classify it as rushing out a name.
