Hooray for cronyism!

And who should be one of the next appointees for the Federal Reserve board? Maybe one of the guys that lost to Bernanke for chair. Or maybe anyone who's got a Ph.D. in economics from Harvard, Chicago, Stanford, Columbia, or Penn. Could we possibly get a top banking executive, you know, someone with first-hand market experience. Naaaaah, who needs that? Let's just go with a mid-30's White House aid who has a law degree. Oh yeah, and his dad has g Fiven more than $150k to the party.

Who knows, with the next Fed position opening up in April, maybe Harriet can get another crack at something she knows nothing about.
