What about head of "Homeland Security"? You think Napalitano is the sharpest knife in the proverbial drawer?
Paulson himself said that he didn't make use of email - doesn't sound very sharp to me.
In fact, I don't hold the top dog down at the White House in too high a regard on the ol' IQ meter.
Napolitano is dumb as a rock. She’s a politician. But you don’t get to be CEO of the top investment firm in the world by being dumb. Paulson knew exactly what he was doing.
