Another Day, Another Potential Nominee Disappears

Boy are they having a tough time filling Obama administration positions:
Democratic sources say that H. Rodgin Cohen, a partner in the New York law firm Sullivan & Cromwell LLP, and the leading candidate for Deputy Treasury Secretary, has withdrawn from consideration.

I reported last week that Cohen was likely to be officially nominated for the Deputy Treasury Secretary position.

He's been a counsel to just about every major player on Wall Street.

Now, the nomination is off.

Democratic sources said that an issue arose in the final stages of the vetting process.

Taxes? Nanny problems? Pictures of him with small boys? With the Obama picks you just never know.
