What the heck is going on? I don't remember this many appointees resigning or being refused in, well forever.

This is what happens when you actually apply standards in Washington. Obama has managed to fill about 43 out of 350 or so positions.

On the other hand, his pics haven't been exactly stellar. I mean, TOM DASCHLE? Fer Chrissakes.
