Greg is suggesting that the GOP might look at Charlie Stenholm for the Ag spot for a few reasons. First, Charlie was the ranking member of the House Ag Committee until he got redistricted out. Second, putting him in there lets BushCo. claim a bipartisan cabinet for a relatively low level cabinet position. Finally, it prevents Stenholm from running for Texas Ag. Commissioner.
Obviously, the cabinet level position is higher than the state level, but the R.s in Texas LOVE the fact that there isn't a single Dem elected to statewide office. They want to keep it that way.* It makes them look more impressive and they want to promote the idea that Texas is a state that no Democrat can win.
*Though there are rumors that Carole Keaton Strayhorn may jump fences and run for Gov under the Dem ageis. But the rumors about who is running for Gov have been flying at an amazing speed. Watch the Daily Show tonight. Maybe Kay Bailey will let us know what she's planning on doing. She can't use her Senate warchest to run for Gov. Whatever happens, it's going to be a fun primary season, especially with all of the R. bloodletting. I would LOVE it if Scott McClellan's mom was the Democratic governor of Texas.
