I don't know about Geitner. I missed what happened there.

I think the timing of Daschle's "realization" was a lot circumspect. It seemed to happen in conjunction with an impending appointment.
He was forced to do the right thing in the end and thats the positive out of the situation. I (looks for lightning) agree with tw here - Daschle was not a good choice for the position. Not if Obama wants to change the "business as usual" mentality of this administration.
