Goodbye Paul O'Neill and Lawrence Lindsey [Washington Post]. "Not a moment too soon." -- The Economist.

Delay on FEC Pick Irks McCain [Washington Post]

Sen. John McCain accused President Bush yesterday of breaking a written promise to speedily appoint a Democrat to the Federal Election Commission, reigniting their roiling feud just as McCain is about to regain the post of chairman of the Senate commerce committee.

McCain (R-Ariz.) said he will "assume all future assurances and promises by this administration to be quite possibly insincere."

Heh. The dance of not saying exactly what one means goes ever on here...
