Daschle for HHS

Another day, another cabinet appointment. According to CNN's Ed Henry, Daschle will also be the administration's point person on the push for a universal health care plan. (A push that Rahm Emanuel apparently has gotten behind.)

Notice how with Holder and Daschle, the stories have been that President-elect Obama offered the post, and that the post was then accepted. Contrast that with the handwringing surrounding the HRC scenario, which looks increasingly unlikely to me.
