Just a quicky, check this out...
There is a strong possibility that Barack Obama will ask Sen. Judd Gregg (R-NH) to serve as his Secretary of Commerce, Democratic Senate aides tell the Huffington Post.
The move would fill a vacancy that has lingered since Gov. Bill Richardson withdrew his nomination. And provided that Al Franken emerges victorious in the Minnesota recount, it would give Democrats in the Senate a 60th caucusing member, as New Hampshire's Democratic governor John Lynch would appoint Gregg's replacement.
it's on the HufferPufferPost... http://www.huffingtonpost.com/...
I really don't know about Jack Lynch, don't know if he'd have to nerve to appoint a Democrat, it would be pretty cool though. I do have a feeling that if it were true and Gregg were to take it, Lynch would "feel obligated" to appoint a republican. they have plent of them in New Hampshire...
We're going to have to add a secondd letterr to the endd of everyy wordd!
