Krauthammer: The Census was at the root of Gregg’s departure
Friday, February 13th, 2009Conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer believes that the Census was a a major concern that led to Gregg’s withdrawal as the nominee for the Secretary of Commerce position. If Gregg became Secretary of Commerce, he would have to wrestle for control over the Census process with White House Chief of Staff (and attack dog) Rahm Emanuel. But Gregg may simply get the heeby-jeebys when he thinks about shaking Rahm Emanuel’s finger stump before and after all Census-related meetings.
