Senator Judd Gregg Has Withdrawn His Nomination

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

According to Power Line Blog (and various other internet sources), Senator Judd Gregg has withdrawn his name from consideration as Secretary of Commerce.  He explained that he had irrecononcilable philosophical differences on many critical policies of the Obama administration--including the stimulus and the relocation of the 2010 Census to the executive branch. 

Senator Judd is much more valuable for the Republicans in the Senate than he would have been as Secretary of Commerce.  He is a principled fiscal conservative who did not feel that he could totally support the spending habits of this administration. 

There will be a problem with the 2010 Census--the White House controlling it is important because of the methods that will be used to tabulate population.  This is something to keep an eye on because the U. S. Constitution is involved.
