[The policy was reversed yesterday.](http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2009-01-19-crowd_N.htm)

**Dolores** , these answers should have been counted together:

#6 – Eric Holder and Attorney General

#7 – Geithner and Timothy Geithner

#7 – Defense and Robert Gates

I’ll group Geithner with Timothy, but I don’t think I should have to look up who was appointed to what office. But I guess since you looked it up for me, I’ll do it anyway.

Mine too - and my first-ever win! To have it happen for my own Feud, and on the day President Obama takes office, is almost too much good stuff all at once. _Almost_.

Thanks, **Dolores**!

according to the designer of the inaug. outfit the colour is lemongrass.

it seems no one expected lemongrass.

also that was wool lace from switzerland, and she had a sweater on under so hopefully she was warm enough.
