US Attorneys serve at the pleasure of the president. If Mitt wins, he can fire all the US Attorneys and replace them with his own appointees.

If memory serves, GW Bush allowed most/all Clinton-appointed US attorneys to stay. He probably should have cleaned house. This may have cost him in certain cases such as the housing/loan/investment melt-down among others. I fear Mitt will keep Barry's people in place in a similar manner. If I were to bet, I would think Mitt will NOT replace Barry's appointees.

You’re correct but recall when Clinton fired them all, there was nary a peep out of the press. When George W. Bush fired only 6 or 7 of Clinton’s appointees, there was a screaming hissy fit about politicizing the U.S. Attorney’s posts.

Which is a reminder of another GWB failure - he failed to clean house.
