9. I love Reich - but would he want to be a a Sec. again?

He's so smart and compassionate.

[coffeenap]

17. A brilliant friend of mine has known him since college--says he is

the smartest person he knows--and would be a great president! Too bad for size prejudice.... (written by a small person, btw.)

[AllieB]

7. We don't need a free marketeer like Rubin around. Or Larry Summers.

I wish Obama would offer Robert Reich or Paul Krugman a post.

[JJ]

13. There you go

Krugman for Treasury.

(did you see his opinion piece in the Times calling Cheney et al Monsters)

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

10. Good.

[Old and In the Way]

11. Probably doesn't want to be around when the bag of shit breaks.

The bag of shit being our economy.

[still_one]

16. It already broke /nt

[Imperialism Inc.]

12. Well that is excellent news.

I personally prefer Shelia Bair for Treasury. I think Robert Kuttner makes a good case for her.

14. Bair is a republican, but I agree with you she wouldn't be a bad choice /nt

[colonel odis]

18. did obama, um, ask rubin to take a post?

if he didn't, then i think i'll call up the university of tennessee athletic department and tell them i'm not interested in the coaching vacancy they have.

21. Not that I know, this was reported on Bloomberg without details /nt

19. Buh Bye!

Don't want him in the cabinet anyway. Many of his theories are wholly discredited.
