I don't know the man. He may be the single most qualified person for the job currently living on planet Earth. But it does smell a little fishy that he would be tapped to head an agency that wants a $300 million per year budget in his daddy's home state. I can see why the Governor would want to appoint him... it's a nice little gesture in return for old Norm's "co-operation" past, present or future. It would smell if he got the job in any state, but here it's even more odoriferous. Am I the only one downwind?
