Judd Gregg Stays In The Senate

Republican Sen. Judd Gregg withdrew his nomination as President Barack Obama's commerce secretary Thursday, citing "irresolvable conflicts" over the administration's stimulus bill and the upcoming 2010 census.

I'm not sure exactly why it took him so long to figure out he wouldn't fit in with the B. Hussein Obama administration, but I think he's made the right choice.

UPDATE: Newt Gingrich just opined that one reason the census was being moved into the hands of Rahm Emanuel - which helped bring about Gregg's departure - is that "left wing groups got very worried that having a conservative Republican in charge of the census would actually lead to an accurate count..."
