I bet he doesn’t. He’s suddenly out of the loop.

Who is he going to appoint? He doesn’t know anybody. Wait, perhaps he could appoint the starter at the Andrews AFB Golf Course. He seems to always have a an early tee time.

I’m thinking maybe Sestak? He’s going to need a job soon, so maybe Zero will just have Clinton make another phone call??

No, No, No, it is obvious he will appoint New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson. Afterall, Richardson fancies himself as an expert in the foreign relations field. Just look at the North Korean situation.

That would sure as hell be a great way to pry Lindsay out of the Senate, but I’m not sure he’s ready to sacrifice his political career on the alter of Obamunism, at least not yet...

Obama has no clue or any idea who he could get to replace Roberts Gates as Secretary of Defense. This is sad, but true.

McCain, one of his own.
