White House Seeking Gonzales Replacements
 |
Republican officials operating at the behest of the White House have begun seeking a possible successor to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, whose support among GOP lawmakers on Capitol Hill has collapsed, according to party sources familiar with the discussions.
Among the names floated Monday by administration officials are Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff and White House anti-terrorism coordinator Frances Townsend. Former Deputy Attorney General Larry Thompson is a White House prospect. So is former solicitor general Theodore B. Olson, but sources were unsure whether he would want the job.
And you wonder why we are trying to get out of here . . . .

Skeletor for AG?...they have got to be kidding!
Oh, yes, but today the WH spokesperson denied they were looking for any replacements . . . Not surprising. They don't have a plan for Iraq either . . . .
