I first heard of it from my cousin Scott in an email. He wonders who&#8217;ll replace Daschle. My guess is someone more Leftist &#8211; Obama thinks he was sunk by Republican reluctance to put a lying cheater in the Obama cabinet, so he&#8217;ll teach them to question The One. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/hotair.com\/archives\/2009\/02\/03\/breaking-daschle-drops-out\/\">Hot Air<\/a> says Daschle was sunk by the <a href=\"http:\/\/hotair.com\/archives\/2009\/02\/03\/breaking-daschle-drops-out\/\">New York Times<\/a>. I think he was sunk by The One. <a href=\"http:\/\/michellemalkin.com\/2009\/02\/03\/daschle-withdraws\/\">Michelle Malkin<\/a> quotes the Obama official statement expressing &#8220;sadness and regret&#8221; at Daschle&#8217;s voluntary withdrawal but Michelle reads it differently;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Regret that Daschle\u2019s serial evasions caught up with him.

Now, as the man in charge of the IRS I will be personally auditing Tom&#8217;s tax returns to see if we can get anymore money out of him.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I may have made that last bit up.

So Obama will grabs some unknown professor with an ideological streak a mile wide, a hardcore commie who hasn&#8217;t made enough money in a year to cheat on taxes, can&#8217;t afford an illegal alien housekeeper and doesn&#8217;t flinch at the thought of taking down the economy in one fell swoop. That&#8217;s probably why the New York Times didn&#8217;t mind taking swipes at Daschle &#8211; they wanted a cold-blooded Che Guevara-type that would hustle us towards communism in the next two years.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, I may be wrong, but Obama will be out for blood after suffering this defeat a few short weeks after the Inauguration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yeah, everyone knows now that Daschle withdrew his name from nomination.
