Political Quote of the Day

A top GOP Senate aide discussing the tax travails for HHS Secretary Designate and former Senater Tom Daschle:
“If a Bush appointee got rich off of Wall Street in this climate, had a chauffeur from one of his fat cat cronies, had unpaid taxes that amounted to more than what most people make in a year, and then the administration tried to fix it behind closed doors. Democrats would call for his head and would demand ‘accountability."
Exactly. However, Daschle is a nominee from hope and change and therefore his problems will likely be ignored.

Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner was considered "too important to fail", and therefore got a pass from a majority of Senators. So, what does Daschle bring to the party that makes him "too important to fail"?

Nothing.
