Because Zell votes with the President on everything. There’s no advantage to be gained by taking him out of the Senate.
His Defense Secretary William Cohen is a Republican.
If he’s going to put a Democrat as Ag secretary, I wish he’d put in the outgoing congressman from my district, Charles Stenholm, a twenty six year conservative democrat and senior member of the House Agricultrual Committee. Charlie got the shaft in DeLays’ Texas redistricting and lost his seat to a Republican freshman, Randy Neugebauer. I was far more upset about losing my congressman that I was about the Presidential election.
Is Secretary of Agriculture even a good job if you’re already a Senator?
I think that sometimes they actually do pick a guy who is right for a certain job. No matter what is political affilliation is believed to be like. They all kind of l seem to like that Greenspan guy . . .
