Obama's Crafty Move to Gain Complete Control of the Senate

Obama to Pick Republican Senator Judd Gregg for Commerce

The New York Times is reporting that President Obama will pick New Hampshire Senator Judd Gregg as Secretary of Commerce as early as Monday:

"Senator Gregg is now the leading candidate for commerce and a pick that could come as early as Monday," a senior administration official said, speaking on condition of anonymity because a formal announcement had not been made.

Mr. Gregg's name has been circulated for several days as Mr. Obama tries to replace his previous nominee for commerce secretary, Gov. Bill Richardson of New Mexico, who withdrew amid revelations that a grand jury is investigating how he awarded state government contracts. Mr. Gregg himself said on Friday that he was under consideration.

Well, we'll soon see what Senator Gregg is made of, won't we? Will he take it, thus giving the Democrats a majority in the Senate? I suppose we'll just have to wait and see, but personally I think this obvious ploy to gain control of the Senate is so transparent any Republican true to conservative values would turn it down. Again and as usual, only time will tell!

I won't be posting for awhile and I don't know for how long. I'll take time to visit when I can, but I'm going to be working on itemizing my taxes and complaining the entire time about having to fund abortions here and overseas! GRRRR! I'll also be taking most of Monday to visit my friend in the convalescent home. In the meantime, keep on keeping on, and keep up your spirits.... somehow. For those who watch the Superbowl, have a great Superbowl Sunday!
