Stumping for Sebelius to join Cabinet after all

Gov. Kathleen Sebelius has said that she isn’t interested in the commerce secretary job. But columnist Bonnie Erbe, blogging for U.S. News & World Report, still thinks that Barack Obama should pick Sebelius to replace Bill Richardson. “She wouldn’t be as much fun for reporters, but she’s an incredibly capable person and beloved governor who deserves to be in the Cabinet,” Erbe wrote. “She played an important role in the Obama campaign and would boost the number of women in top administration jobs.”

    Columnist Bonnie Erbe was wrong on both counts of her assessment.

    Hey Bonnie Erbe, which Kathleen Sebelius are you referring to? Certainly not the one we know and loath.

    This might just be a gift horse! Give her a chance to leave on a down note.
